It does not matter to me. I am going to vote in favour of this because I believe it is the right thing to do.

What we have seen today, in my opinion, is a reluctance to move forward on this, despite the fact that everybody in the House knows how incredibly important it is to get this legislation in place so that seniors can be properly taken care of. Can the minister explain to the House why it is so critically important that this happen right now?
