Watch the youtube video and read the comments and contributions from relatives of residents, those who toured the Holland site, alternative programs etc etc.

For the full Global news story go here:

What I learned:

Canada has an estimated 700,000 dementia cases now with higher numbers predicted for the future.

This featured village costs 100K and appears to be the best "end of life fast decline" experience for those afflicted. Yes only the 1% can enter and pay for this service.

Every provincial health care budget and available services will have to be adjusted as the onslaught of cases overwhelm the existing facilities.
