Due to a printer's error, Figures 1–4 on pages 98–100 of the article by Tannenbaum et al. (2017) in the March 2017 issue of Canadian Journal on Aging were printed in grayscale instead of color. The color versions of the figures follow below. We regret this error.

In addition, Janet C. Currie's name was incorrectly listed as Jane Currie. Her name has been corrected in the online version of the article.
