The piece argues that the Canada Pension Plan is a tax in disguise with a large unfunded liability. It warns younger generations will bear the costs through higher contributions and debt, calling for private pension planning and systemic reform. It notes a 330 billion dollar shortfall and rising payroll taxes projected to 13.9 percent by 2025.
