All options are available to mark.

Inspired by this plan and survey.

Canada Pension Plan will run out of money long before the entire baby boomers generation have kicked the bucket.

So if Canadians haven't been investing into alternatives then they will be

out of luck come retirement time.

Oh, I'm an 'other.'

Just part of Smith's *bleep* Canada plan.

So choose option 5 and you'll be good.

Not really interested in Alberta weather. I’m definitely not trusting my retirement needs to any government.

But I'm sure they would love to have your mandatory contibution at least until you retire in BC. It seems to me lots of Albertains are able to suck it up temporarily for their 'environment'.

Glad you are taking an interest in Alberta's Financial Sovereignty and Independence.

Why are you so upset if a province wishes to self-steward its own capital?

Could it be that you have a personal bias towards said province?

Sounds more like jealousy.

I'm not a fan of Quebec; yet I don't care what they do with their ill-gotten Federal Welfare aka "Equalization" payments.
