ORDERS OF THE DAY

ORDRE DU JOUR

Ms. Wynne moved,

Mme Wynne propose,

That, the Legislative Assembly of Ontario call upon the federal government to recognize that there is a need to improve and strengthen the retirement income system in Canada and take immediate steps to implement enhanced Canada Pension Plan benefits for all Canadians;

Whereas the Canada Pension Plan is the foundation of the nation's retirement income system, the maximum CPP retirement benefit for new retirees is just over $1,000 per month or $12,000 per year; and the percentage of new beneficiaries receiving maximum CPP retirement pension is only 6 per cent and where the average Ontarian is receiving just under $7,000 per year, or just 56 per cent of the maximum benefit;

And recognizing the retirement savings challenge, the Ontario government has developed a comprehensive retirement income strategy and is leading the call for a CPP enhancement;

An enhancement to the CPP is critical to ensuring that Ontarians, particularly middle-income earners, have greater financial security in retirement;

The Ontario government has laid out and received agreement from other provinces on a number of objectives for strengthening the retirement income system, including a CPP enhancement, focusing on today's workers, moderating the effect on the economy and improving the retirement incomes of those most at risk;

And while others will say we can put this off for another day, the Legislative Assembly of Ontario disagrees and encourages the federal government to agree to enhance CPP now;

And that this Assembly agree that Ontario should pursue its own solution to enhancing retirement security should the federal government not respond in a timely fashion.

Debate arose and after some time,

Il s’élève un débat et après quelque temps,

Mr. Yakabuski moved that the following be added at the end of the motion:

"And that the Legislative Assembly of Ontario believes that the Wynne government has failed to put forward a jobs plan over two months after the House cleared the decks;

Therefore, it is the opinion of this House that the House Leaders of all three recognized parties shall schedule a debate one week following the passage of this motion and a vote on the motion of want of confidence standing in the name of Jim Wilson, MPP, Simcoe–Grey."

Debate resumed and after some time the House adjourned at 6:00 p.m.

Le débat reprend et après quelque temps, à 18 h, la chambre a ajourné ses travaux.
