Aging can bring about changes in people's mental and physical abilities. However, it is against the law to discriminate against someone based on their age. It is up to older adults themselves to decide if they want to, for example, retire. Older adults can also continue to drive as long as they are fit to do so.
The Saskatchewan Human Rights Code prohibits discrimination against anyone based on their age when they are 18 or over. This applies in areas like housing, public services, contracts, publications and employment.
In Saskatchewan, you can continue to renew your licence every year regardless of your age. However, if problems are reported, drivers may have to undergo an assessment to see if they are still able to drive safely.
