Age doesn’t stop growth—it can accelerate it. In theCBC News interview “Canada’s Oldest Living Person Says You’re Never Too Old to Learn Something New”, 113-year-old Rejeanne Fairhead shares the mindset that’s helped her thrive for over a century: stay curious, stay active, and keep learning. With humor and humility, she reflects on how life never stops offering lessons, and that embracing change and discovery is key to longevity—not just in years, but in spirit.
Rejeanne’s story is a reminder that learning is not limited by age—it’s enriched by experience. Whether it’s adapting to new technology, engaging with younger generations, or exploring a new hobby, her message is clear: “Just keep going.” Her longevity is not just a biological feat, but a testament to the power of resilience, optimism, and an open mind.
