Canadians Face Early Old Age Pensions Under New Plan
A Southam report outlines how the Canada Pension Plan allows residents in all provinces except Quebec to start basic old age pensions at age 65 with a monthly rate of 51 dollars, versus 75 dollars at 70, creating a shift of funds toward early pensioners into 1966 and beyond. The plan combines flat-rate and earnings-related pensions, with incentives to keep working after 65 and a requirement to choose one start age for both pension streams.

Busy Session Forecast For House of Commons
Prime Minister Pearson says a full legislative program is studied for the new Parliament session starting Sept. 30 unless a Great Lakes labor crisis forces an early return. Cabinet meets with a bulky agenda. George Drew travels to Ottawa for Anglo Canadian talks while Ontario's Robarts bypasses Health Minister LaMarsh on pensions. Parliament likely won’t be recalled before Sept. 30 as maritime unions face trusteeship amid lake labor violence.
