    My workplace has a defined benefit pension and they announced that all employees will be losing this pension (even those who are a couple years from retirement).

    We will be switched over to a defined contribution pension and our previous contributions will be converted retroactively.

    I don’t foresee this new pension lasting more than 5 years before they cut it completely. I wouldn’t even be surprised if they’re able to keep our pension contributions retroactively, fucking everyone over.

        In the industry I work in, they can legally do anything to you because our work exists outside of the Canadian Labour Code. This includes give you $0 paycheques for months and expect you to keep doing your job until it’s fixed, which can take 3 months to a year.
