Description
The intent of this booklet is to provide a realistic picture of seniors in Canada. It provides an overview, beginning with a brief description of selected social and demographic characteristics such as sex, income etc. Health status is described next (physical, mental) and the booklet demonstrates that although health declines during old age, it is not the period of debilitation that many expect.
