SUMMARY

The purpose of this enactment is to replace discriminatory refer ences to old age in federal statutes with the term ``seniors'' in order to reflect the attitudes and values of modern Canadian society. Among the changes made to those federal statutes is a new title for the Old Age Security Act. It would now be known as the Seniors' Income Security Act.
