Old Age Security was implemented in which year?

  1. 1927

  2. 1965

  3. 1940

  4. 1970

The correct answer is: 1927

Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they are not the earliest year and do not align with the time period in which the Old Age Security program was established. Option B is particularly incorrect because it falls within the time period of the establishment of the Canada Pension Plan, which is a separate program. Option A, 1927, is the correct answer as that was when the Old Age Security program was first introduced in Canada. Therefore, option A is the earliest and most accurate choice.
