12. SENIORS IN POVERTY
• “The median after-tax income of senior families (where the highest income earner was 65 years of age and
older) totaled $61,200 in 2017, up $2,500 from 2016. The median after-tax income of senior families has
trended up steadily since 2012, reflecting increases from wages and salaries income and private retirement
income. ”Source - https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/daily-quotidien/190226/dq190226b-eng.htm
• “Senior families, where the highest income earner was 65 years of age or older, had a median after-tax income
of $57,500 in 2015, up 5.7% from 2012. After-tax income of these families has been climbing steadily since at
least the mid-1970s. In 1976, senior families received $33,100 in after-tax income. In 2015, unattached
individuals 65 years of age or older had a median after-tax income of $26,300, while their non-senior
counterparts reported $29,400. Both groups have seen little change in their median after-tax income
since 2012. ”Source – Stats Canada - https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/daily-quotidien/170526/dq170526a-

• “Internal government documents say that many of the 57,000 seniors the Liberals say they have helped lift out
of poverty only moved above the poverty line when the government changed the measure. Last August, the
federal government adopted, for the first time, an official poverty line based on the income needed to afford a
basket of household necessities. ”Source - https://www.crestonvalleyadvance.ca/news/feds-lowered-poverty-
