Skinny Trump will draw a pension of $230,000 when he turns 65, such a fucking hypocrite. It's time all MP's pay for their own pension, when Harper was PM Canadians paid $24 for every $1 dollar an MP put into their pension fund.
Canada has a pension plan that is the envy of the world!
Don't let this imbecile ruin it for everyone! 40-50% voter turn out is not enough! When the time comes ... GET OUT AND VOTE! If you don't, then STFU and take what king polly is willing to give you! One vote can matter!
Aged out of my industry in the early 50s. Then had to reinvent myself and start again - at a way lower wage. I bet PP isn’t interested in moving parliamentary pensions to 67 too.
I’ve heard horror stories of corporations laying off senior staff so they can hire newbies at lower wages. Also, there are a lot of physical jobs that older bodies just can’t tolerate. Raising the retirement age is a terrible policy.
I have friends in their 50’s who couldn’t find work. Even when they would accept lower wages, they were told they were overqualified. My BIL lost his bank job, even though he was one of the few employees making money for them. #ageism
Honestly they shouldn't be allowed to change it ever. I'm sick and tired of the government messing with anything to do with seniors. Leave us alone. Go bug the other generation

They get a full pension, but it doesn’t start paying out until CPP does - in full.
If you want to push CPP to 67, you don’t get yours until 67 either. Fair is fair. The difference is that I actually
Contribute to CPP.
