Claude DeBellefeuille Bloc Québécois
“I am glad the member will support my bill. It lets seniors earn up to $6,500 from working without losing as much of their pension benefits.”
“Mr. Speaker, that warms my heart. I was wondering whether all the Conservatives were going to vote against the bill after hearing her colleague speak before her. I sincerely thank her from the bottom of my heart. I believe that the bill increases the exemption amount to $6,500. That gives seniors who are 65 and older some flexibility if they wish to work, so that they are not penalized as much if they want to continue working. I look forward to hearing my colleague talk about my bill. I am very pleased to hear that she will support it.”
