Linda Reid, MLA for Richmond South Centre and Opposition Critic for Seniors’ Care, said B.C. Seniors’ Week is a time for us to honour seniors across our province by celebrating the “incredible contributions they make to our province and recognizing their role as an integral part of our communities.”

“This Seniors’ Week, it is more important than ever that we not only honour and celebrate our seniors, but take a moment to reflect on the services and supports available across our province and what we can do to improve the quality of life for our parents, grandparents, and loved ones who depend on them.

“During this pandemic, seniors have made up a disproportionate number of the COVID-19 cases and improving care for our seniors must play a vital role in our Province’s recovery. Our heartfelt condolences go out to all families who have lost a loved one during this difficult time.

“I would also like to take this moment to thank all caregivers, support staff, frontline workers, and family members who have worked tirelessly to offer support to our seniors during this trying time.

“Our seniors built our communities into what they are today, so please take a moment this week to thank a parent, grandparent, family friend, or neighbour and show them that our communities recognize and thank them for their incredible services to our province.”
