Tell the Canada Pension Plan: Protect our retirement security in a changing climate | RNAO.ca
The Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPPIB), which manages the retirement savings of more than 22 million Canadians through the Canada Pension Plan (CPP), is expected to hold its biennial meetings in the next few months. These meetings provide a rare opportunity for the public to hold CPPIB accountable. Unfortunately, the CPPIB’s meetings are often announced with little notice, limiting meaningful public participation.

While the federal government reversed some cuts, even modest co‑payments still in effect, discourage people from seeking early care, weakening prevention and delaying diagnosis and treatment, resulting in poorer outcomes and higher downstream costs.
