Leslie Gaudette
Leslie Gaudette is the president of the Council of Senior Citizens’ Organizations of BC (COSCO), an advocacy group representing approximately 80,000 seniors in British Columbia. Recently, she has been vocal in opposing changes to the province's property tax deferment program, arguing that the new interest rates turn a vital support system for low-income seniors into an expensive loan. Gaudette emphasizes the negative impact these changes will have on vulnerable seniors, particularly those living on fixed incomes, and has been actively working to reverse the government's decision.
