Pension Plan To Start Early In 1952
The federal government plans a $350000 program to grant Canadians aged 70 plus a $40 monthly pension starting early in 1952. Prime Minister St Laurent announced that all ten provinces have agreed to a constitutional amendment to allow federal involvement. The plan will be funded through taxation with possible two percent income levy, and once underway the federal government will share costs with provinces for those aged 65 to 69.
