Canada

Poverty is hard on people at both ends of the age spectrum. The Mr needs to retire, he's sick and worn out but he's scared we won't have enough to get by on because he was screwed out of his pension for 20 years. We aren't extravagant, and we have a couple small pensions on top of CPP and OAP plus some savings so we're better off than many. Yet if something were to happen we could be in trouble. I really feel for the seniors without even that little cushion, as well as families too.

I really hope Trudeau steps up to the plate. There are a lot of people whose pensions were disappeared by some of these unscrupulous businesses, or couldn't afford to put anything away.

Thanks, backatcha. A is better than a heart any old day!
