Absolutely. When I think about age-friendly communities, there is no age for those. They are birth to the end of life, and if a community of, say, 800 is connected through intergenerational activities, through community events, we can do that by districts within a city. That's one of the principles we're pushing in Manitoba as we move forward: getting community stakeholders to connect with each other to see about community events and bringing everybody together. Some of our first nations are very good at that, and it's cross-generational.
We have age silos in policy, in government and in the school system. Those don't help when we get hit with a pandemic. They counteract age-friendliness.
