Eleven million Canadians have no workplace pension anymore — and as life gets more expensive, most families simply can’t save enough to go it alone.
Stephen Harper’s answer? He wants you to roll the dice on risky stock markets. New Democrats have a better plan: increase your guaranteed public pension.
See for yourself how the Conservative and New Democrat plans stack up.
Conservative plan: Roll the dice on risky stock markets Stephen Harper’s answer to the retirement security crisis — his Pooled Registered Pension Plan — doubles down on the same private funds that have already failed so many families.
NDP plan: Strengthen your guaranteed public pension. A New Democrat government will build on the rock-solid Canada and Quebec Pension Plans — affordably doubling your monthly benefits so you can be sure you’ll retire in dignity.
Spread the word You shouldn’t have to roll the dice on your retirement.
New Democrats have a better plan. Over time, we’ll double your guaranteed Canada/Quebec Pension Plan benefits—to a maximum of $1920 each month. Economists and provincial leaders agree: growing the CPP/QPP is the best, lowest-cost pension reform option available.
Let’s spread the word and make it happen.
