A Discussion Paper
Peter Hicks
Experts Panel on Income Security
June 2019

If Canadian policymakers take a new approach, we could improve the well-being of Canada’s poorest seniors and improve the standard of living of other seniors. But this does not necessarily have to come with major additional costs to taxpayers, governments or private pension plans.
