Stephanie Kalinowski Quoted by Lexpert in an Article on the Impact CPP Expansion Could Have on the ORPP

Hicks Morley’s Stephanie Kalinowski was quoted in the November 11, 2015 Lexpert article entitled “CPP expansion would throw a wrench in pension plans in Ontario.”

The article focuses on the proposal from the federal Liberal government to consult with the provinces on enhancements to the Canada Pension Plan (CPP) and whether an expanded CPP might supplant the Ontario Registered Pension Plan, which is scheduled to begin rolling out in 2017. About the possibility of either the coming ORPP or an expanded CPP, Stephanie states that, “If you are unionized, you need to start thinking now about whether there’s something you can negotiate with your union and put into your collective agreement to help you prepare for this.”
