    Seniors Minister John Abbott talks about the contributions seniors continue to make.

    Seniors Minister John Abott says Seniors continue to contribute to our communities in many ways. This is Seniors Month and the Minister says seniors build and support society. Minister Abbott says he can relate to the importance of seniors and as society changes, we have to keep the intergenerational ties strong. He says they’re creating an Intergenerational Program Guide which is a how-to book as to how to engage different age groups. It should be available to communities and groups soon.  To report adult abuse or neglect, please call 1-855-376-4957
