Trudeau appears unwilling to expand proposed rebate, despite pressure to include seniors

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is facing pressure to expand a proposed federal rebate to include seniors, but he appears unwilling to do so. The rebate, part of the federal government's economic measures, aims to provide financial relief to Canadians dealing with the rising cost of living. However, the current proposal excludes seniors, leading to criticism from opposition parties and advocacy groups who argue that seniors are also significantly affected by inflation. Despite these calls, Trudeau has not indicated any willingness to adjust the eligibility criteria to include this demographic, emphasizing instead the government's focus on other targeted relief measures for seniors. This stance has sparked a debate on the adequacy and fairness of the government's approach to economic support during these challenging times.
