As the Canadian population continues to age, quality of life becomes more important.
It’s one thing just to age, but something completely different to maintain the physical independence of someone years or decades younger. That’s what inspired a four-part series produced by Mike Arsenault and Ross Hull.

Joining us in the competition are Jennifer Valentyne and Liem Vu from Global News Morning.
