When it comes to living conditions for seniors, homes were built all over the place. They're essentially apartment buildings. For instance, recently we managed to create the Centre de santé Saint-Thomas, a place where there is ordinary housing, in other words apartments designed for independent living. Then there are centres that offer a little more support. I don't know what that is called in French, but in English it is referred to as assisted living. There are also homes for people suffering from dementia or who have significant palliative care needs. People who are prepared to move to Edmonton can access those services. But, at the end of the day that is the only way to obtain these types of services in French.
