Senator LeBreton Debunks the Fearmongering About the OAS

As soon as PM Harper made his speech in Davos, Switzerland last  week mentioning that his government intends to make Old Age Pension in Canada sustainable,all hell started breaking loose. The weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth began even before anyone had any idea about what the government has planned.

The fear mongering is in full force from the opposition parties and the consensus media.They are scaring grandma and grandpa into believing they'll be left in a snow bank and be forced to eat dog food. Nothing could be further from the truth.

 Senator Marjory LeBreton on  Brian Lilley's Byline last night set the record straight.

Click on the link above, watch then share with every senior you know.  It's not quite like it's being portrayed by the opposition and  the media party.

Even so,if OAS is going to be reformed,it might be a good idea if MP's gold plated pensions were reformed as well. The other pension reforms will be easier to swallow if MP's have to share the pain with everyone else.
