Canada Pensions...

***This is a false internet story... is an urban legend. Thanks, Erwin!***
It is interesting to know that the federal Government of Canada allows:

A monthly pension of: $1,890.00 to a simple refugee
plus : $580.00 in social aid

A grand total of : $2,470.00 monthly
X 12 months
= $28,920.00 annual income

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

By comparison, the Old Age Pension of a senior citizen who has contributed to the development of Our Beautiful Big Country during 40 or 50 years, CANNOT receive more than:

Amount/month $1,012.00 in Old Age Pension and Guaranteed Income Supplement
X 12 months
= $12,144.00 annual income


• A difference of : $16,776.00 per year

* Perhaps our senior citizens should ask for the Status of Refugees instead of applying for Old Age Pension.

* Let us send this message to as many Canadians as possible,and maybe the allowance of refugee could then be reduced to $1,012.00, and that of our Canadian pensioners raised to $2,470.00 per month.

(who actually deserve it) the money that they have been paying in income taxes for 40 or 50 years!

OUR CANADIAN SENIORS CITIZENS, DESERVE BETTER!
