Statement made on 25 March 2010 by Senator Elizabeth Hubley

Hon. Elizabeth Hubley:

Honourable senators, my question is to the Leader of the Government in the Senate. This government pretends that pension reform is a priority, but more than four years after forming a government, instead of action, the Minister of Finance has announced yet more consultations.

Is this another delay tactic? When will Canadians see this government take concrete action to protect and improve the Canadian pension regime for pensioners and workers?
