A Warning For Province About Seniors
New Brunswick will have to start paying more attention to seniors because they will be making up a greater percentage of the province's population. That, from the chair of the Provincial Human Rights Commission Randy Dickinson.
As of this July, seniors made up more than 16 per cent of the population in the province. That's expected to rise to 22 per cent by 2021 and 29 per cent by 2031.
Dickinson expects the number of age discrimination complaints in hiring to go up even though they can be tough to prove.
He goes on to say seniors in the future will be better educated and therefore more aware of their rights which will make them more assertive.
Our province becomes the first tomorrow to mark the inaugural National Seniors Day.
