New Guide for Seniors

The provincial government envisions – for decades to come – a province where older people continue to be an integral part of our social and economic life, where they are encouraged to use their talents and expertise; where they are invited to be involved in their community; and where they feel safe and supported in their physical environment.

The government recognizes that, as part of their commitment to building the best system of support for seniors in Canada, providing the information seniors need to connect with resources in their community is key. Access to this information is equally important for caregivers and service providers.

This is the reason the government once again updated the B.C. Seniors’ Guide – the 9th edition – which contains information on the programs and benefits available to seniors in British Columbia.

An electronic version of the Guide is posted on-line at
