[Report] Perspectives on Growing Older in Canada - 2025 report

Now in its fourth year, Perspectives on Growing Older in Canada: The 2025 Ageing in Canada Survey, continues to be one of Canada’s most comprehensive annual snapshots of the experiences, perspectives and expectations of Canadians aged 50 and older. Conducted by the NIA with support from Manulife, this report reflects the successes and challenges of ageing in Canada.

The annual survey examines 10 indicators of ageing well in Canada, including social wellbeing, financial security, health and independence and perspectives on ageing for Canadians 50 years and older across the country. The findings serve as a call to action for policymakers, organizations, and stakeholders to prioritize evidence-based strategies that address social isolation, financial insecurity, and barriers to health care access.
