Citing the “complicated” nature of pensions and need for all provinces and territories to weigh in, Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland would not provide a specific timeline for determining how much Alberta would be entitled to if it leaves the Canada Pension Plan.
Speaking after a meeting with her provincial and territorial counterparts, Ms. Freeland said officials reported back to the group on Dec. 15 about the work involved with arriving at the number, which she requested from the chief actuary in November.
