If Mr Trudeau is intent on building infrastructure as part of his economic plan, contributing federal funds towards building PCHs for ageing babyboomers seems like a very good investment.

We need more personal care home facilities in Southeastern Manitoba so they are available near the vicinity in which these people live.

My parents are elderly and have just moved from a house to a non-senior condominium complex after not being able to find an affordable personal care facility.

Although I personally live in Texas, I needed to move both my parents who lived in Blumenort at the time into a PCH. We, my parents and I chose St. Adolphe PCH, who later moved to Niverville. I am happy to say our experience with them was very positive. Both my parents have deceased since then but I am keenly aware of the need for PCHs. And also back in 1997, I needed to moved my husband to a PCH here in Texas. He has since deceased as well.

I am 70 years old and I will need a safe affordable place to live in 5 to 10 years

I support this initiative as many clients coming for legal advice have indicated their elderly parents are either stuck in a hospital bed waiting for a permanent placement, or have a situation that is less than ideal.

As a Realtor in this community I recognize the seniors housing shortage and so I fully support this petition.

Our elderly citizens are often placed in facilities far from Steinbach resulting in hardship for all concerned. The person in care feels lonely & isolated - an elder spouse, family & friends can no longer drop in easily to visit or run errands. Visits are then less frequent as travel takes time - it is expensive - bad winter weather can shut down roads & some elder spouses will not drive a long distance in winter. Lets look after our people at home!!

The fundamental human need to remain in the familiar is essential for a person's quality of life.
