She touched briefly on the issue of the guaranteed income supplement recipients and the inadequacy of those payments. My question is regarding a motion that I tabled and that we have not yet had the opportunity to debate. We will be debating it at a later date.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"762670\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Does she acknowledge that calling on the government to significantly improve the guaranteed income supplement should be aimed primarily at singles? As we all know, it is much more expensive to live alone and it is mainly women, by a vast majority, who live below the poverty line this way.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"762669\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je remercie ma coll\u00e8gue de son allocution. Elle a touch\u00e9 bri\u00e8vement \u00e0 la question des prestataires du Suppl\u00e9ment de revenu garanti et de l'insuffisance de ces prestations. Je pose ma question au regard d'une motion que j'ai d\u00e9pos\u00e9e et dont nous n'avons pas encore eu l'occasion de d\u00e9battre. Nous le ferons ult\u00e9rieurement.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"762670\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Reconna\u00eet-elle qu'une demande au gouvernement afin de bonifier le Suppl\u00e9ment de revenu garanti de fa\u00e7on substantielle devrait principalement viser les personnes seules? Car on sait que cela co\u00fbte beaucoup plus cher de vivre seul et que ce sont principalement les femmes qui vivent sous le seuil de la pauvret\u00e9, et en tr\u00e8s grande majorit\u00e9, sur ce territoire.</p>"
