The bill aims to ensure and promote the autonomy of seniors by recognizing several rights, such as the right to live in their home as long as possible, the right to affordable and adapted housing, and the right to financial security. It seeks to promote dignified living conditions adapted to the needs of seniors.

The main provisions of the bill include recognizing specific rights for seniors, establishing a national strategy for autonomy and home support, and requiring the government to submit a five-year action plan. This strategy aims to ensure adequate access to adapted and quality care and services, facilitate home support, and ensure seniors' satisfaction with public services.

The bill amends the Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms to empower the Commission des droits de la personne et des droits de la jeunesse to ensure the respect of seniors' rights.

Seniors, particularly those with reduced autonomy, are the primary beneficiaries of this bill. It also targets institutions and organizations involved in providing care and services to seniors, promoting a collaborative and intersectoral approach.
