A supplement would be cheaper than moving them to a care home‼️ “What I hear most [from seniors] is their desire to live at home, in their community, with the people they love,” said Mackenzie
A senior woman in B.C. with a $29,000 annual pension is not eligible for the guaranteed income supplement, notes one advocate.

When they are young, children love to smile and readily respond to compassion. We must find ways to keep these qualities alive so they maintain a compassionate attitude and learn how to tackle anger as they grow up. Time at school should include methods to achieve peace of mind
