Le français suit l’anglais

Monday, April 28, 2025, Canadians will go to the polls in one of our country’s most important federal elections.

Senior Pride Network Canada/Réseau de la Fierté des personnes aînées du Canada (SPNC/RFAC) asks Canadians going to the polls to choose politicians and leadership who believe in a country where everyone, at every age, feels valued and respected.

In these challenging times of conflict and enmity, Canadians must vote for an inclusive future – a future built on kindness, championing human rights, honouring diverse identities, and ensuring older persons, and especially 2SLGBTQI+ older adults, are respected and feel seen and heard.

That future must include within federal government programs and services, such as the 2SLGBTQI+ Action Plan and seniors strategies, specific programs, initiatives and funding to ensure the social, health and financial well-being of 2SLGBTQI+ older adults.

On April 28, 2025, make your vote represent a choice for an inclusive Canada that respects differences, no matter who they love or how they identify, with compassion and understanding.

SPNC/RFAC is a national organization supporting 2SLGBTQI+ seniors, elders, and older persons. We strive to nurture communities that embrace aging with compassion, dignity, and understanding.

Comment: Dignity Seniors Society (DSS) is a co-founding and front-line member of SPNC/RFAC.
