Marty Bélanger | EP 113 | Canada Pension Plan: Funding, Payouts, and Broken Promises

In this episode of In Lay Terms, Marty Bélanger (Marty Up North) returns to discuss the Canada Pension Plan (CPP) and its challenges. Together, we explore how the CPP is funded, why CPP2 was introduced, and the differences between public sector pensions and the average Canadian’s retirement security.

Marty explains the mechanisms behind government pensions, whether they're truly "ironclad," and what happens if the government can't meet its pension obligations—will they print more money or renegotiate? We also examine why citizens face reduced payouts and delayed access to their CPP while public sector pensions remain untouched.

Don’t miss this deep dive into the realities of the CPP and what it means for Canadians.
