Wow. A huge - explosive - scoop from the Globe and Mail. It reports that Alberta wants to claim more than 50% of the total value of the CPP to kick start its own Alberta-only pension plan. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-alberta-canada-pension-plan-assets/ #Canada #Alberta #CPP #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli #CanadaPensionPlan
Alberta eyes more than half of CPP’s assets in report on provincial plan

Controversial analysis set to be released Thursday could mark the beginning of a new standoff and rift with the federal government or other provinces

Here, for context, is a column I wrote in 2021 on all the reasons that an Alberta pension plan would be problematic. But I never imagined anything that would rip the country apart as this proposal would. https://albertaviews.ca/pension-folly/ #Alberta #Canada #CPP #abpoli #ableg #CanadaPensionPlan #AlbertaViews #cdnpoli
