SENIORS’ FORUM WITH FEDERAL ELECTION CANDIDATES
Tuesday, September 15 at 1 o’clock
in Room 2 – Oliver Community Centre

and

Osoyoos Seniors’ Centre – 1pm Monday September 14th

The Wine Country Retired Teachers’ Association and other groups are sponsoring a forum to talk about and learn about Seniors’ issues and concerns. Our Federal Election candidates for our Riding will be present to listen, learn and to be advised about what matters to Seniors and what Seniors’ care about. One of these candidates will be representing our Riding in Ottawa after the next election on October 19th.

It is simply a meeting for seniors to talk about issues and voice their concerns and debate possible solutions to problems that need government attention.

The Retired Teachers organization is non-political …. it is not in the business of supporting any one party versus another. But we do have issues.

Respect for Seniors; Healthcare for seniors; Continuing Care, Long term care and Palliative care; Support for Caregivers; rights; Retirement security with sufficient pensions for food, clothing and shelter; Transportation services for seniors to get from Oliver and Osoyoos to the Penticton and Kelowna Hospitals; Long-term Care Housing needs and solutions; Home support; the need for a national Pharmacare program to reduce costs, etc.

Please mark your calendar.
