On October 1, 2015, Immigrant Services Calgary’s Community Initiatives for Immigrant Seniors Program, in partnership with City of Calgary and the Calgary Chinese Elderly Citizens’ Association, celebrated the Annual National Seniors Day. October 1 is recognized annually as National Seniors Day and Immigrant Services Calgary has been celebrating this ever since it was officially launched by the Government of Canada in 2010 to pay tribute to the seniors who have helped build our country and continue to make valuable contributions to Canadian communities, workplaces and society.
