Chief actuary disagrees with Alberta government belief of entitlement to more than half of CPP

Jim Dinning watches as Premier Danielle Smith speaks at the Sept. 21 release of a report about an Alberta pension plan. Dinning, a former provincial finance minister, heads an engagement panel that will hold a series of telephone town halls across Alberta to gauge support for the proposed plan.

Canada’s chief actuary says Alberta would be entitled to interest from the Canada Pension Plan proportional to the money Albertans invested, should the province withdraw from CPP.
