What would an Alberta Pension Plan mean for the CPP?
Dear Ronald,
On Wednesday, Nov. 29 at 11 a.m. MST, the National Association of Federal Retirees will be hosting a webinar about the Canada Pension Plan (CPP) and what it could mean for Alberta to leave and create its own pension plan. This webinar will be presented in English with simultaneous interpretation in French.
In September, the Alberta government presented the report it commissioned on the possibility of leaving the CPP and creating an Alberta Pension Plan.
That same day, Federal Retirees asked members whether they support the Alberta government’s proposal to exit the CPP. Members reacted decisively. In one day, over 10,000 members responded, with the majority — 95 per cent — opposing the proposal. When asked whether Federal Retirees should be actively involved in defending the CPP and Quebec Pension Plan, 95 per cent responded with a resounding “yes!”
Members are worried. Members have questions. And we are listening.
Join us to learn what Alberta leaving the CPP could mean for all Canadians who rely on the CPP in their retirement.
Hosted by Federal Retirees and moderated by myself, Prairies and Northwest Territories district director Rick Brick, this webinar will feature guest speaker Jeffrey Hodgson, managing director global stakeholder affairs at CPP Investments.
Federal Retirees members across Canada are invited to participate to learn what Alberta’s proposal could mean for Alberta and for the rest of Canada.
Register to participate here.
