It takes a lot to slow down Constance Isherwood, British Columbia's oldest practising lawyer. She took only a few days off work after the city of Victoria was hit with a snowstorm last week that forced schools and businesses to close.
The lawyer, who turned 100 on Sunday and was feted by family and friends, doesn't feel her age, saying 100 doesn't seem much different than 70, 80 or 90. She credits her intrigue with the law for her longevity.
"So that keeps you interested, and of course, going to work keeps your body active and mind active, which is a good thing at any age," Isherwood told As It Happens host Carol Off.
