Can I claim dependant for parent who is working parttime?

My 70 year old mum works 20 hours a week just to keep herself busy and active.  However, she is dependant on me and lives with me.  Can I still claim her as dependant on me?

You can claim Caregiver amount of credit (Schedule 1 line 315) for her, but it may be reduced on account of her income.  Incidentally both you and she should file taxes.
