Description
This episode originally aired on November 7, 2022. Guest: Moira Welsh, investigative reporter The devastation faced by Ontario’s long-term care residents during the pandemic may have fuelled a reckoning and a collective question: how do you want to spend the final years of your life? That’s the focus of The Third Act, an ongoing series produced by the Star in collaboration with Toronto Metropolitan University and the National Institute on Ageing, which aims to explore real world solutions that could make a genuine difference to Canadians as they age. The conversation is at a critical juncture as Ontario’s health care sector is in crisis and almost a quarter of Canada’s population set to become seniors in the next few decades. While some places are reframing old-age care, why is Canada behind? Moira Welsh explains. This episode was produced by Saba Eitizaz, Paulo Marques and Alexis Green.
