Seniors in Canada have been disrespected for too long. Both Conservatives and Liberals have failed them—pushing cuts, clawbacks, and neglecting their needs. With rising costs, pensions are eroded while billionaires get tax breaks. Clawbacks must end, and we will fix it by prioritizing dignity, security, and real financial support for seniors. #election2025 #canpoli #cdnpoli #seniors #ndp #portmoody #coquitlam
And yes, #accessibility is a reason for choosing a #tablet over a #phablet:
Espechally #seniors who have trouble seeing do enjoy the fact that most #Android #Apps are just heing displayed bigger and they have less trouble using any on-screen keyboard.
Plus they may already have gotten their hearing aid or audio setup connected to said tablet for media consumption so it's less fiddly for them!

Snow buddies" help elderly adults, those with disabilities with free snow removal across Colorado. "Our program has been running for more than 20 years, and this is a program that really has connected well with our residents"
All #SeniorCitizens like me (I'm 75 this year) are not addled or infirm but thanks for offering your help to help those who may be.
I know how to access the #SSA website & receive notices from them periodically, including the recent notice of the 40% increase in my #SocialSecurityBenefits plus a nice lump sum payment for past due benefits that I just received due to the passage of the Social Security Fairness Act (#SSFA).

@ddmgmgh Look what's going on in #Alberta - #Poilievre's template for the entire country.
Former PM Stephen Harper - "A man diametrically opposed to the concept of defined pension benefit plans for public sector workers is now responsible for managing the investments of 375,000 Alberta pensioners."
To be clear, Poilievre's mentor built his political career campaigning against pensions.
@ddmgmgh "likely adjust CPP and OAS pension age qualifications as Harper did."
That is a given.
Poilievre plans to up from 65 to 67 immediately.
Long waits, waves of calls, web crashes: #SocialSecurity is breaking down
A flood of cuts led by #ElonMusk has sent the agency into chaos as a new commissioner prepares to take charge.

Peter Ladner talks with Jennifer Reid, Co-Founder and Director of Vancouver Cycling Without Age Society, about their trishaws program. Such a great program! This is real seniors support and community building. There should be one or two trishaws at every community centre. (Actually they’re hoping to find a space in the West End to store one or two.)
