Synopsis

Canada is hardly unique in this respect. Countries around the world are engaged in similar debates, and their experience holds important lessons. Through the perspectives of international and Canadian researchers, Reform of Retirement Income Policy focuses on many key reform issues: future income prospects for the elderly, roles of the public and private sectors, fairness and intergenerational equity, affordability and economic impacts, public expectations, and political constraints.
