In 2012, Pierre voted to increase the age of eligibility for Old Age Security (OAS) and the Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS) from 65 to 67

In 2024, CPPIB made six high-risk investments in fossil fuels, undermining its commitment to reach net-zero emissions by 2050 and ignoring the urgent scientific warnings about the need to rapidly phase out fossil fuels.
Totally agree with you

Well for me later hit when I was 45. My spouse died I lost almost half our household income but my expenses remained much the same. The Survivor's Benefit helped get me through the roughest time of my life.
Having it set aside automatically is what works.
Of course there are a few amazing financial geniuses that can do it...but they are few and far between.

This is frightening for me Cheryl. My hubby is losing his battle with Cancer. If the Cons get in & tamper with our pensions, I WILL BE HOMELESS!
Thank you as always.

Make no mistake that another #Conservative government will harm even more vulnerable groups of people.

Maybe leaders debates should be boxing matches so they can see what their mouthpiece is.

Later in 2012, Pierre argued that corporate tax cuts would trickle down and strengthen pension plans. The corporate tax cuts happened —
In 2014, Pierre promoted allowing employers to abandon the pension they promised to workers
No thanks to Pierre and the Conservatives, CPP was expanded and workers are now earning CPP benefits that are at least 33% greater
In 2021, Pierre voted against a 10% increase to the Old Age Security pension for those aged 75 and above
Pierre has already committed to replacing public sector pensions with defined contribution plans that favour employers and shortchange workers.
So we’re essentially paying exorbitant wages for CPP execs AND layers of mgmt fees at these funds.
"For the quarter, the fund's net return was 3.6 percent, while the 10-year annualized net return remained at 9.1 percent."
