Our CPP is under attack and we need to save it.

We are a group of concerned Albertans who have come together to oppose the plans announced by Premier Danielle Smith to take Alberta out of the Canada Pension Plan. The strength our group brings to this fightback is in the research, analysis and publicity we are able to contribute, as we include individuals with expertise in pension administration and consulting, finance, public advocacy and public relations.

We know that those of us who speak out in opposition to the Premier’s plan will be up against powerful corporate interests who see prospects for massive profits if and when the provincial government seizes control of the billions of dollars currently in the Canada Pension Fund.

It is our intention to spread our campaign across the province in advance of a referendum the Premier is planning, as the conversation has been flooded by disinformation and false arguments. Our bulletins have been produced by pension experts in our group who have distilled massive amounts of information into a number of easy-to-read points.

The only sure defense against the type of well-financed campaign we expect from the UCP is a riled-up and informed public.

We have produced three short bulletins to help Albertans understand what's at stake.

Danielle Smith’s Shiny New Alberta Pension Plan...What could possibly go wrong? provides some background on changes likely to take place if Alberta withdraws from the CPP, as well as exposing our government’s sad record with pension fund administration.

Three Myths About the Canada Pension Plan, exposes commonly-repeated myths that are likely to be exploited by the Premier and her corporate interests when they flood the media with their sales pitch.

Poll Numbers Show Pension Confusion: Whose Pensions are Most at Risk? dispels myths for younger Albertans, particularly those under 30, who have expressed more support for the idea of Danielle Smith's plan than other demographics. 

We hope that you find these bulletins informative and useful. We are asking you to distribute them quickly to your friends, family and neighbours, wherever possible. Use them in whole or in part, as you wish. It is crucial that we warn and inform as many Albertans as possible, as they will be the losers if the Premier succeeds with her plan.
