One of the areas that we've actually identified as a growing area of elder abuse is the area of cultural elder abuse. I am speaking very much to what my colleague was saying. I would also offer that being taken out of your community and brought down south would be a cultural form of elder abuse, particularly when it leaves the older person far from their food. Certainly in long-term care facilities where we see specific needs, they are usually provided for in legislation but not always provided for in reality.
