Expanding Supports for Seniors

As part of 2023 Budget: Building a Strong Ontario, our government is proposing to expand the Guaranteed Annual Income System (GAINS). Beginning in July 2024, an additional 100,000 seniors will qualify for monthly payments and for the first time ever it will be indexed to inflation annually.

The Budget will also invest close to $1 million over 3 years to expand the Seniors Safety Line, a 24/7 helpline connecting seniors experiencing or at risk of elder abuse, with trained counsellors to provide support.
