Senior’s Rate for Leisure Centres

The City’s Golf Courses have a senior’s rate for 65+. Saskatoon Transit also has a senior’s rate for monthly and annual passes. There is no such senior rate for access to leisure centres, outdoor pools or the Terry Fox Track. This is a missed opportunity.

According to the City’s Housing Needs Assessment report last year, the senior’s population is expected to grow at a more rapid rate than the rest of the population over the coming years. Opportunities for seniors to stay active is important. I support reducing the cost for this access.
