Retiring On A Low Income: Plain Language Advice

Please note that this program will be held at the North York Seniors Centre, not North York Central Library.

The vast majority of the financial information available about retirement planning is designed for people who have pensions or have accumulated money in RRSPs or other savings. There is very little information available for people who will need to rely primarily on the Canadian Pension Plan (CPP), Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS) and Old Age Security (OAS) for their income after retirement.

The Retiring on a Low Income workshop is designed for people who are planning on retiring with CPP, OAS and GIS as their main source of income. John Stapleton of Open Policy Ontario will explain how these programs work and what anyone relying on them will need to know.
