I think this is a very interesting area. It has been fascinating to see the digital divide essentially closing and an even more rapid upgrowth in the seniors community.
But I think this is an area for innovation: we don't deal with the human factor things very well. When you think about it, the first computer was horrible to work with, right? Then it became so easy that you didn't really have to understand it. Ditto with the car. To start with, the car was hard, and now it's all computerized. You don't know why it's doing what it's doing, or even what it's doing, but it works.
I think we could create senior-friendly user devices. I think this should be something that we should push towards. You put on a sweater, your informatics sweater, and it actually reads everything about you and sends it wirelessly. You don't have to worry about it. You just put on the sweater, right? You can imagine some very creative ways in which science actually could contribute to making this more user-friendly. I think we could push in that direction.
The second is this area of affordability. The cost in Canada is very different from the cost in other countries, so it is a matter of policy, to a certain extent, as to what the cost is and whether there's competition and so on. As Heather points out, in some instances, even at the prices we pay now compared to other countries, it's cost-effective to invest in the technology; it will cost more if you don't.
