Canada Pension Plan“Protecting the pensions of all Canadians is a priority for our government, and I look forward to an important conversation about this,” she told reporters during a press conference Tuesday.
Premier Danielle Smith proposed the idea earlier this year after a report commissioned by her government said they would be entitled to $334 billion from the existing CPP fund if they withdraw — more than half the current assets — though that number has been criticized.The report cited the province’s relatively younger working population, higher incomes, fewer seniors drawing from the CPP and years of high contributions from people in the province.
But Freeland has said she didn’t believe the figure was right and more analysis needs to be done, with the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board estimating Alberta is owed about 16 per cent of the fund.There is an exit clause in the CPP’s legislation, allowing provinces to pull out of the national program if they have their own old age security program. Only Quebec is not part of the CPP, but it also had never taken part in the program which was created in 1966.
The province’s proposed plan has seen pushback from many, not only from the Alberta opposition NDP but from various provincial governments including the Ontario Progressive Conservatives and the federal Conservatives., also panned the proposal with the AFL calling it a “zombie policy that refuses to die,” and that it was “truly scary for anyone contemplating a safe and stable retirement.
She went on to say at Friday’s meeting that she would specifically speak about what she called flaws in Alberta’s exit formula, adding some estimates show if that were to be applied to Alberta, Ontario and B.C., the three provinces alone would be entitled to 128 per cent of CPP assets.
