The petition is currently online on the House of Commons website and people wishing to sign it have until September 9, 2021 to do so.

On April 19, Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland announced in her budget that the increase would only be available to those aged 75 and over.

“Financial insecurity is not age-based. Contrary to what Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says, this is a sad reality for seniors under 75. We’re calling for substantial, permanent and inclusive financial assistance,” says Réseau FADOQ president Gisèle Tassé-Goodman.
