    Just a quick thought, go into the non doctor shortage, because in North west bc. No personal doctors and the walkin clinic is 13 deep waiting. And it must be worse for the homeless, especially if means testing is mandated. I wonder if that might be from a perspective of privilege?

    As for OAS, why not adjust the clawback rather than tinker with the age eligibility? It needs to fit with CPP which is built around 65 as the default age. As for marriage, why all the emphasis on the lack of marriagible men? There are plenty of reasons for men to avoid marriage today. Glad to see Amanda talk about the male bashing taking place.

    Why did Trudeau cancel Harper's OAS reform? Vote buying is all he knows.

    For the young, eliminate down payments for homes and structure mortgages to be more homeowner friendly. Banks have reached such great highs in profits for as long as there have been banks in Canada, they can give back in this crisis
