We are concerned the interests and rights of our elderly citizens are not being protected. The Children's Commissioner advocates for protecting the rights of our children, so where is the advocate for our elderly?

We call on the government to create a champion for our elderly – to ensure they receive the respect and care they deserve in all aspects of their lives.

To that end we, the undersigned, call for the establishment of a commissioner for the elderly (or similar) to ensure our precious seniors' rights are protected.
