"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"4435675\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, I most certainly do not. I have met with so many low-income seniors that I have lost count, so many who are struggling. The CPP is one pension plan that went through the 2008 financial crisis relatively unscathed. It is a strong plan. It needs enhancement and if we are to have a serious conversation about low-income seniors in this country, we need to start having it now. A retirement vehicle that has survived previous shocks is a solid investment for our future.</p>",

Je rencontre tellement de personnes \u00e2g\u00e9es \u00e0 faibles revenus qui n\u2019arrivent pas \u00e0 joindre les deux bouts que je ne les compte plus. Le RPC est un r\u00e9gime de pensions qui a r\u00e9ussi \u00e0 traverser la crise financi\u00e8re de 2008 sans trop de dommages. C\u2019est un plan robuste. Il a besoin d\u2019\u00eatre am\u00e9lior\u00e9, mais si nous voulons entamer un d\u00e9bat s\u00e9rieux sur la situation des personnes \u00e2g\u00e9es \u00e0 faibles revenus au Canada, commen\u00e7ons d\u00e8s maintenant. Un instrument de placement pour la retraite qui a surv\u00e9cu \u00e0 toutes ces crises est un investissement solide pour notre avenir.</p>"
