Statement made on 03 November 2009 by Senator Lucie Pépin (retired)
Hon. Lucie Pépin:
Honourable senators, my question is for the Leader of the Government in the Senate. I want to thank the leader for sending the federal H1N1 Preparedness Guide to our offices. This is a very useful document. Every Canadian deserves to have a copy of it.
The government knows that the best way to inform Canadians is to send them information at home. Last August, Canadians received information at home on the Home Renovation Tax Credit as well as an envelope to keep their receipts in. That idea might apply to H1N1.
Can the Leader of the Government in the Senate assure us that the government will correct its mistake and send information on the H1N1 virus directly to Canadians at home the way it did in August for the Home Renovation Tax Credit?
