Danielle Smith said the goal is to get more voices and opinions to gauge public opinion on quitting the Canada Pension Plan, and the best way for that is by phone.
The idea of an Alberta Pension Plan is worrying to some people. Some are not sure it would be as reliable as the Canadian Pension Plan. Sarah Komadina has more reaction. – Sep 21, 2023Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says phone beats face to face when it comes to gauging public opinion on quitting the Canada Pension Plan — but the Opposition NDP says something this big needs to be in person.
There are to be five 90-minute telephone town-hall discussions over six weeks, each session focused on getting feedback from a different region. The panel noted it also conducted a telephone survey of 1,000 Albertans. Of those surveyed, two-thirds said Alberta deserves a better deal in Confederation. Smith released the LifeWorks report when she launched the pension debate, and its findings are critical to the province’s claim that a stand-alone Alberta plan is workable.
