To meet the challenges of a changing global economy, Canada must invest in policies that support aging with dignity and financial security.
Budget 2025 will be released Tuesday, Nov. 4, 2025, which also marks the start of a new fall budget cycle.
Federal Retirees will be watching closely for commitments that serve our members and all older Canadians. Through this federal budget the Association seeks commitments to:
- Safeguard and improve pensions
- Act on equitable outcomes for veterans
- Fix shortfalls impacting federal retirees
- Support positive, healthy aging
Canada is at its best when we all move forward together and when no generation is left behind in our response to escalating global economic risks. Our country’s future depends on policies and funding that help people age well and retire with financial security.
This is what we communicated in Federal Retirees’ pre-budget submission in advance of the fall 2025 federal budget.
We invite you to review the submission leading up to budget day and watch for more from Federal Retirees after the budget is presented.
Correction notice: In the Safeguard and Improve Pensions section, referencing the 2024 Power of Pensions study, the sentence should read: “According to the 2024 Power of Pensions study, workplace pensions in Canada paid $84 billion — more than Canadians received from employment income and the Canada Pension Plan (CPP).” The word “combined” was included in error.
