Stay on top of it all withalerts and insights from the cibc Smart Account. Hi, I'm Mae Martinand I cannot tell youhow stoked I am to get a bunch of selfies with celebs at theCanadian Screen Awards. [beep] I mean, I can't tell you how excited I am to host the awards. That is the main and most important thing. [ ] >> Erica: how more and more older canadians find options for staying at home. >> Think you can't be stuck in the way you've always done things. >> Erica: from sharing homes to forming communities with neighbours facing the same challenges. >> You have your independence. Your independence means so much to everyone. >> Erica: it's called aging in place, and when it works, everyone benefits. Christine birak takes us through those options and why they're catching on. [ ] >> Reporter: never before has the number of people nearing retirement been so high. By 2030, almost a quarter of canadians will be over 65. Since the pandemic, surveys show 96% of older adults would do everything they can to avoid living in institutions. Many are afraid of long-term care, and vacancies are up in expensive retirement homes, too. What most older adults say they want is to age in place but they've got either too much house or too little support. So what is aging in place and what are some ways to make it work? >> As people age, they want to continue to be able to live their lives as they have, so aging in place is a part of that. Living in the community that they know, having access to

services and supports in their neighborhood. [ ] >> Reporter: one way of doing that is coliving. Friends or acquaintances buying a house together. In 2018, we met london, ontario's golden girls. Phyllis, barb, and mary pooled their money to buy this house. Five years on, we wantseded to ask how it's going. Mary is leaving to help out her family. Co-living isn't something barb and phyllis ever imagined when they were younger. Now in their 70s -- >> When somebody says barb, supper's ready, oh, good. >> Hallelujah. >> Yeah. >> I paid way more in rent than I pay per month to be here. >> Imagine that. >> That was just rent. That wasn't anything else. >> Shows where the money goes. >> Reporter: they share all food and home expenses. Receipts go in the bowl. >> At the end of each month, we have a finance meeting. >> Reporter: cleaning and daily cooking duties, all shared, too. Who's the best cook? >> Oh, I'm not going to ask that. >> Reporter: it's all very cordial, well organized, and caring. >> People ask what about when you're feeling grumpy or when you have a fight? >> Reporter: it's important to be flexible. >> It's important to listen to what other people are saying and try to find a solution. >> Reporter: of course co-living isn't for everyone. Another idea canadians are exploring to help them age in place is called norc, naturally occurring retirement communities. Instead of community services, norc brings services to communities where 30% or more of residents are older adults. [ ] >> Reporter: about 70% of the residents living in this toronto building are over 65. During the pandemic, the birthday girl reached out to u.h.n., a hospital network, to ask about their fledgeling norc programme. >> Norc says, what do you need? Not what we can give you, but tell us what you need. >> Reporter: services like food care, paramedic clinics, access to exercise programmes. >> One of my favourite quotes by the residents is how this norc programme has turned a cold apartment building into a warm community. >> Reporter: this man is the director of the research programme that's running the programme. They looked at 2,000 communities housing about 217,000 older adults. Norc streamlined results. >> People are better supported and feel healthier in their homes where they've said they want to be. They're not going to end up in emergency rooms as often. >> Hey, mary. >> Come on in. >> Reporter: mary vigro says affordability has always been top of mind. Now 87, she lives alone, but she's not lonely. >> I've spoken to more people in the building. >> Reporter: when she fell and broke her hip inside her apartment, one of her neighbours noticed something was off. >> I had not taken in my newspaper, and I was dehydrating, so she got in touch with the custodian, and they opened the door and fortunately she saved my life. >> Reporter: with all the benefits and a silver wave looming, it's worth asking why aren't there more NORCs? McMASTER professor lori letz leads a norc study, finding that it could create an opportunity for governments to create healthy aging in their communities. Norc programmes aren't expensive to run, and they provide residents with a sense of purpose. This woman says she never did an exercise class in her life until she was 88. >> You have your independence.

your independence means so much to everyone and you're able to have that. >> You can't be stuck in the way you've always done things. You need to be open to there's more than one way to do something. >> Reporter: while long-term care will be there for those requiring 24-hour care, many of are working to age in place as long as they possibly can. >> Erica: christine, could governments move towards an aging-in-place model? >> Reporter: it would be a big shift. Experts we spoke to say supporting these retirement communities could really streamline services, bringing them to where older adults are. Already wait lists for beds in long-term care and assisted living are long. The federal government is giving provinces money to help canadians age with dignity. Residents we spoke with say NORCs can be the model for aging in place. It's already widespread in several regions in the u.s., but people here have to get behind it. >> Erica: how do you go about creating one? >> Reporter: before this, I hadn't thought about where I want to be living where I'm older. I like the golden girls arrangement, but it requires commitment and a bit of creation. I couldn't believe that mary was 87 years old and living alone.

Adrienne is covering more on the story. >> Adrienne: the queen's own rifles pushed through, took and held the battered building. A beacon then, and 80 years later, canadians still come. >> Adrienne: the people who live there say that when veterans return to this spot on juno beach, the place where they landed on june 6, 1944, often they will ask the question, what happened to the wall? Where's the huge wall that protected them from the german fire that was coming from that house right there, the house that canadians ultimately liberated. It turns out the wall is not gone. It's not been destroyed. The beach has just reclaimed it. The sands have shifted, but the beach still holds the evidence of d-day all these years later. >> Erica: adrienne will host "the national" from juno beach june 6 to june 8.

Nespresso, what else? >> Erica: you're looking at a couple of divers holding a prehistoric fossil, a tusk that belonged to an american mastodon, a distant relative of the elephant. The tusk was discovered by one of the divers just off the coast of florida, and his rare finding makes our "moment." >> Out of the corner of my eye, like, up against this reef, I saw this piece of little what looked like tree bark sticking out. I started fanning it, and it just kept getting bigger and bigger, and I pulled it up out of the sand in one piece. It's an american mastodon piece. The age is anywhere from 10,000 to 1.5 million years old. Tusks in florida especially one that size and in that good of shape are incredibly rare. I showed my parents. I opened up the trunk of my car and said hey, look at this. They said it's a piece of wood, and I said no, it's a tusk. I told my girlfriend that it's a family tusk now. Our kids will inherit this tusk, our grand kids, and hopefully it stays in the family and nobody sells it. [ ] >> Erica: that's correct. Some wills, you get the house, you get the car, but no, you get the american mastodon tusk. It was about four feet long and

Man: We build our own legacy. Arena announcer: She scores! [ ] >> Erica: tonight, cbc news has learned charges have been laid in connection with a deadly wrong way crash on canada's busiest highway. >> Oh, my god! >> Erica: that passenger in the u-haul van chased by police was out on bail. >> You shouldn't be out on bail. Multiple times, you shouldn't be out on bail. >> Erica: what we learned about the decision that sparked the dangerous pursuit. >>> And canadians will be have more place -- will have more places to buy liquor, but it comes at a cost. >>> And a new look at growing old. We breakdown the challenges and potential solutions to help canadian seniors age in place. [ ] >> Erica: good evening and thanks for joining us. Ian is away. >>> We're learning new details about the cascade of events that led to a police pursuit the wrong way down a busy ontario highway, and now, charges have been laid. Court documents obtained by cbc news show the passenger in that u-haul van running from police robbed a liquor store. It was that event that ended up with the suspects running from police and killing four people in a head-on impact. >> Reporter: in that u-haul van racing down the highway in the wrong direction, two men were fleeing durham police. >> There's a psycho in a truck driving the wrong way. >> Reporter: the high-speed chase ending in a fatal crash that killed a two month old and his two grandparents. The driver of the u-haul died, and now, newly obtained court documents show that his passenger, manpreet gill, recently robbed a liquor store. He and the driver were both out on bail at the time of the crash. >> If he's out on bail, you shouldn't be out on bail. Multiple times, you continue to do the same thing. >> Reporter: it was a close call for this woman and her husband. >> He was coming right at us. All I saw was headlights. He was just flying. We didn't have any warning besides those westbound police. >> Reporter: investigators say it all started with a robbery at this liquor store. Here's what ontario provincial police were told in radio communications that evening. >> There was a male inside the lcbo trying to rob the store. He pulled a knife on an off duty officer. >> Reporter: ontario's police watchdog is looking into the chase and the deadly crash, but the new charges provide new insight into what happened. Durham's police chief hasn't said what happened even when asked. >> Those events are not separated. That is one event that happened, and I'm going to let the S.I.U. complete their investigation. >> Erica: and thomas, the whereabouts of gill, the van passenger, are not entirely clear right now. Why is that? >> Reporter: yeah, he was scheduled to appear in court yesterday on these new charges. He didn't show up. He may well still be in hospital. He was taken to hospital with serious injuries, but it's not known. In recent years he was charged with a series of offenses including being possession of a stolen vehicle and robbing another liquor store in the toronto area. He's expected to appear in court by video link on these new charges. >> Erica: cbc reporter thomas daigle.
