Today:
• 28 % of older Canadians live alone
• 42% of Canadians aged 85+ live alone
• 43% of older Canadians are at risk of social isolation

Community-based seniors services can help address social isolation, strengthen social connection and prevent crises before they occur.

Where do municipal candidates stand on the critical environmental issues facing our community?
Vote4Tomorrow is an independent voter guide to evaluate where local candidates stand on climate and environmental policies that will affect our future. Municipal candidates were invited to participate by completing a questionnaire. Check out who answered and what they said. https://vote4tomorrow.ca/

We were asked why the Seniors Network was involved in the Vote4Tomorrow questionnaire. Here is the answer!

"Older adults have many concerns and relate to a variety of issues and points of view. The environment is a concern for many citizens, including seniors, especially when we imagine the future that our children and grandchildren will face. Recently, to learn more about some of these issues, the Campbell River Seniors Network has connected with a provincial, non-partisan network (BC Heat Collaborative) with respect to "extreme heat", which can be particularly dangerous for older adults. The CRSN also held a public information event in June to help older adults plan for climate and other emergencies, including extreme heat. Our goal is to learn and inform. The BC Heat Collective is using the Vote4Tomorrow election tool to help voters understand where candidates stand on various climate and environmental policies and we chose to share this voter guide in our community. In this case, the questions are the default questions provided by Vote4Tomorrow and not developed by local groups."

Where do local candidates stand on climate and environmental policies?
