Abstract
The growing population of baby boomers is affecting the demography in an entirely new way - unlike anything previously experienced in Canada. This paper analyzes the positive and negative factors of accommodating the current elderly population and suggests solutions to meet their needs that will have a positive benefit for the population overall. The author cautions that economic developers must prepare for the increasing demands on an already over-burdened infrastructure and health care system through local strategic planning directed at attracting and accommodating the housing, as well as, other needs of seniors.Keywords: baby boomers, seniors, population, economic developers
