The Office of the Ombudsperson in B.C. recently released a massive report
INSTANT payday loans
(400 pages!) on the care of seniors in the province. Andrew MacLeod’s write-up in The Tyee INSTANT payday loans
provides some insightful analysis.
I took a quick look through some of the documents and it is clear that the report recognizes pressing issues. It is certainly not short on recommendations. But as with most things political, implementation often lags far behind. We will not know for some time how serious the government is about changing policy.
In the meantime, hopefully this report will serve as a starting point for a wider conversation on senior care.
