CUPE Says Gold Plated Pensions For Its Members Are A Myth

Unionised provincial government workers do not receive fat pensions and live high off the hog when they retire according to Sandy Harding, a vice-president with Cupe New Brunswick. 

She says the average Cupe pension is from 13 to 14 thousand dollars a year in this province which is below the national average of 18 thousand.
 
Harding also says that pension money is clawed back with C-P-P and its time for tax reform with corporations and businesses coughing up their fair share.
