Share your thoughts: Supporting Canadians Aging at Home

Canadians are living longer and healthier lives than previous generations. Many older adults prefer to stay in their homes and communities for as long as possible.

Through this online consultation survey, the National Seniors Council heard from Canadians about ways to further support those wishing to age in their homes and communities for as long as possible. These views will help inform the advice being presented to the federal government on this matter.

Who was the focus of this consultation

• Older adults
• Caregivers (family/friends)
• Health, social, and community care and service providers or volunteers
• Groups working with or representing older adults, persons with disabilities, 2SLGBTQI+ communities, newcomers, cultural communities, official language minority communities, Indigenous communities, etc.

• All other interested Canadians and organizations
