The CPP is a pension provided by the government. So you're saying we don't need the government to provide us with a pension because they provide us with a pension.

Compulsory savings don't work for people who are just making ends meet or less. Everything I had put aside vanished in the eleven year gap between on-the-job accident and when I finally got a disability pension....
Public Pension, this is only OAS, this is only $540/ mo max right now... Who would retire to wait for this amount??[
If the retirement age increases, these Canadians may suffer as they wait for their public pension cheques to begin flowing.

How many workers are there in a town with only 'machine'? I count 1.All it took for many workers was for their entire industry to crash. Especially in one horse towns.
Better get you ticket to Chili ready. Is freighter tourist still the cheapest way to travel and do they have broadband?Public Pension, this is only OAS, this is only $540/ mo max right now... Who would retire to wait for this amount??
I've been to Chile a couple times but I've never been to Chili. Is it chilly in Chili?
Big deal and in today's Canada, that won't even buy you a loaf of bread.I got $2.15 on the OAS.
Harper & Company is real good at saying what he is going to do to us, now how about we hear what he is going to do, FOR US? Read this quore somewhere, but Harper and Company better think twice about touching the OAS before he first scaled back the pension the MP's are ripping the Canadian taxpayers for! "The reason Politicians try so hard to get re-elected is that they would 'hate' to have to make a living under the laws they've passed."We'll be going through a demographic seniors bubble over the next few decades and it will be difficult to maintain our population base. How are we to pay for it? Something has to give sooner or later.
Good for you and good kuck. I quit many times before I was finally able to kick the habit. It'll be 20 years this fall since I had my last ciggy.I quit about 4 weeks ago now but if they ever came out with bacon flavoured smokes I think I'd be smoking again.

I hope he cuts off GIS & OAS for immigrant seniors unless they have worked in this country for a minimum of 10 yrs.What else is he going to do?

Right now, many senior immigrants get here thru family unification program or via refugee program and start claiming OAS and GIS after being here for 5 yrs. They never have to work to get this benefit.
No, you only have to have Canadian citizenship.Does anybody have to work to get OAS?
And here I didn't think anything could top aids emptying out the bars a little before my divorce was final.

Isn't everybody else supposed to be 'saving energy'

Since nobody has to work for the benefit, why should immigrants. My mother never worked a day in her life if you discount house work. Do you have a problem with her as well?
