Eleven veterans groups presented a brief to the government urging immediate hikes in liability pensions and allowances. The Royal Canadian Legion said they seek a 6 percent basic rate increase for pensioners and dependents, effective Sept 1, and another 6 percent on Jan 1, raising single veteran allowances from 105 to 121 dollars monthly and lifting the income ceiling from 145 to 167 dollars. The brief notes inflation pressures and compares 1920 pension levels to today’s wages, arguing the current rates lag behind the earnings of unskilled workers.
