The province's senior's advocate says older people in Newfoundland and Labrador are among the poorest in Canada. Susan Walsh spoke about what that means for them...and for the rest of us.

Earlier this week, senior's advocate Susan Walsh delivered her first report on how well older people in this province are living. It turns out for many of them, their income adds up to less than a full-time job on minimum wage. And more than fifty percent of seniors have only government checks as income. Walsh says there's a lot of work to be done to ensure our seniors live as well as they can.
