On December 1, 2022, the F.E.L. Priestley Lecture Series was pleased to welcome André Picard to the University of Lethbridge to present Neglected No More: The Urgent Need To Improve the Lives of Canada’s Elders.
The pandemic exposed just how badly we treat our elders. In this talk, a veteran journalist explores how we can ensure that our loved ones can age in place and grow older with dignity.
André Picard is the health columnist at The Globe and Mail and the author of six books, including the current bestseller “Neglected No More: The Urgent Need To Improve the Lives of Canada’s Elders.”
He has received much acclaim for his writing, including the prestigious Michener Award for Meritorious Public Service Journalism and being named Canada’s first “Public Health Hero” by the Canadian Public Health Association. André is a graduate of the University of Ottawa and Carleton University and has received honorary doctorates from seven universities, including UBC and the University of Toronto.
