It’s no secret that Canadians are rapidly aging. Already, nearly one in five Canadians is over the age of 65. And that figure is projected to grow to nearly one-quarter of Canadians within the next 15 years.

With that will come new challenges, from health care and caregiving, to housing. So how are families planning for this future?

For a future story by generations reporter Ann Hui, we want to speak with families about how they’re planning for the older adults in their lives. What kinds of discussions are you having between the generations, about housing, health care and estate planning? And what does aging well mean to them?
