New Brunswick Premier Brian Gallant believes the province is ideally suited for a pilot project on how to manage an aging population, and is pitching his idea to federal Health Minister Ginette Petitpas Taylor for a study on how to combat the challenges produced by an aging demographic. The pilot project would look at best practices to keep seniors healthy and in their homes, and overcome the costs associated with caring for an aging population.
