Ontario Retirement Plan

Two out of three working people in Ontario don’t have a pension plan.
issue_pic_ehealth What does the future look like for many hard working people in Ontario today?
More and more Ontarians are working harder and longer without a workplace pension to provide security when they retire.

You work hard, You deserve to know that you can afford to retire one day.

That’s why New Democrats have proposed the first-ever Ontario Retirement Plan for all Ontarians.

Only a province wide retirement plan can use the buying power of all Ontarians to help everyone have a decent retirement income.

Working together we can change how pensions work in Ontario. And you’ll have the security of knowing your retirement income is protected.

In the words of Andrea Horwath, Leader of Ontario’s NDP, “We need a retirement plan that protects families, instead of failing them. We can make saving for your retirement cost less and be more secure. Sounds like a good plan, doesn’t it?”
