Pension reform continues to be one of the most critical public policy issues in Canada. Federal and provincial governments must ensure pension security and sustainability for workers who belong to pension plans while finding creative ways to enhance coverage and adequacy for everyone.
In the past year, legislative changes have been introduced – notably in Ontario and Alberta – while New Brunswick continues to lead the way in rolling out its innovative shared risk model. Organized labour is now very engaged in the process, the media is keeping the issue at the forefront and citizens are better informed about the financial risks they face should pension reform stall.
As we did in Fall 2013, Osler is pleased to continue this important discussion by hosting a panel with some of the leading voices around pension reform in Canada to share their vision of the path(s) forward in the evolution of the Canadian pension system.
