Hamilton Council on Aging

Our mission is to advance positive aging — promoting the health, well-being and social participation of ALL older adults

VOTE ON OCTOBER 26

On September 24, Hamilton Council on Aging partnered with Entente Education Canada District 13 and the National Association of Federal Retirees to host an All Hamilton Mayoral Candidates Meeting on Seniors’ Issues at Sackville Hill Senior Centre.

Ten mayoral candidates attended and answered questions from older adults about affordability and other issues that matter to seniors. Sincere thanks to our moderator Scott Radley, our partners, volunteers, candidates and everyone who took part. And thank you to Annaliese Gumboc of the Hamilton Spectator for covering the event and highlighting the issues raised by Hamilton’s older adults.
