Mr. Speaker, we are all aware of the many impacts the pandemic has had on Canadians, especially seniors. The Minister of Seniors recently announced funding to support community organizations serving seniors as we continue to face the pandemic. Can the minister please inform this house how this funding will help seniors in Mississauga—Streetsville and across Canada?

Mr. Speaker, I would like to tell the minister that her solution is not working. This government lacks vision. It is always reacting. It was to be expected that there would be an unprecedented demand for the renewal of Canadian passports because of the pandemic. My riding office is seeing many cases, lots of Julies, Carls and Marie-Annes. According to the Passport Canada site, people can expect to wait 20 days to get their passports. Why is this government causing people pointless stress and making them wait? Why is it not honouring its own deadlines?
