On April 27, 2012 in Halifax, the Community Coalition to End Poverty - Nova Scotia and the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives - Nova Scotia Office partnered to present a lecture on Canada's public pension system.
The lecture featured economic consultant and specialist in public pension policy, Monica Townson, who explains how the Canadian pension system works, why it's considered to be in crisis, and the implications of recent changes to the system proposed by the government. Listen to the full lecture above.
CCPA not only does first-rate research; it also connects with the real world by putting powerful information in the hands of advocacy groups and by presenting intelligent, progressive ideas in the media. It is a BC jewel and I urge everyone to support it.
