Brockville has become the first municipality to partner with Veterans Affairs Canada and the Government of Ontario through the Canadian Seniors Partnership to pioneer a new Web site that offers seniors, their families and caregivers ready access to information and services delivered by all three levels of government, plus community-based agencies.

By visiting www.seniorsinfo.ca, Brockville-area seniors and their families can now go on-line for the first time and find a doctor, explore housing options, or learn about local leisure activities. Over time, we hope the site will include specific information on resources in many other communities across Canada. In the meantime, visitors to this site from all parts of Canada can browse for information on important topics such as pensions, retirement planning, and how to cope with the loss of a loved one.

The Canadian Seniors Partnership is a partnership among many levels of government aimed at improving services to seniors, their families and caregivers.
