I was ready to answer the previous question, and actually, it does answer your question as well, and that is, for example, a duty to report. Now, there are many drawbacks to a duty to report. People don't like the idea. It infantilizes the senior, so there are some objections.
However, I will say that in the cause of preventing financial abuse, tellers, for example, have been instructed, trained, and sensitized to what to watch for. Western Union and all of these money transfer enterprises have been used as a source of scamming older Canadians. All of these people have made it their business to educate themselves as to how they can at least detect, warn, and possibly—if we had such a mechanism—report on elements of abuse. At the very least, because many of these situations are anonymous, they can only prevent the senior from being taken advantage of.
We had an example in our own office when one of our chapter members rushed off to a Western Union office to start drawing out money to send to a granddaughter who was stuck somewhere—you know that usual scam—only to have the clerk say to her that it was probably not a good idea, and that she should double-check. The clerk stopped that particular fraud, but how many more times does this happen? Therefore, absolutely, there's an opportunity here to have this accelerated interest in the issue to spur on activities by other enterprises to collectively find a way to prevent a lot of this abuse.
Does it require another provision in the Criminal Code? It's hard to say, but that obligation to help detect and report is one that we would encourage.
