On May 10, 2022, the Canadian Federation of University Women (CFUW K-W), the Retired Teachers of Ontario (RTOERO), the Waterloo Region Health Coalition (WRHC), the Kitchener-Waterloo Chapter of the Council of Canadians (COC), and the National Association of Federal Retirees (NAFR) hosted an All Candidates Forum for the Waterloo Region on Senior Care and Long Term Care. The Forum had Regional candidates from the Green Party of Ontario (David Weber), the Ontario Liberal Party (Melanie Van Alphen), and the Ontario New Democratic Party (Catherine Fife). Mike Harris, Jr., of the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario had agreed to attend, but then cancelled just hours prior to the event, which was insufficient time for the organizers to find an alternative representative of that party. The event was moderated by Dr. Catherine Tong of the Geriatric Health Systems Research Group at the University of Waterloo. This event was a chance for the major Parties to present their election platform positions on a variety of aspects of Senior Care. You can access the recording of the Forum using the following link:

The webinar was hosted by Woolwich Healthy Communities with assistance from the Nith Valley EcoBoosters. Its purpose was to encourage new candidates to run for office AND to satisfy people curious about what it’s like to be a local politician.
