Common Front for Retirement Security

Earlier this year SIPA had discussions with Dan Braniff, founder of the National Front for Pension Splitting. The Common Front had experienced success in achieving their goal and were looking for a new single issue. Dan invited SIPA to meet with the Common Front in Collingwood to discuss SIPA's iniatives in their search for a new issue appropriate for the Common Front. It was decided that the new issue would be Retirement Security.

Retirement Security encompasses many of the issues that SIPA is pursuing. Certainly the loss of seniors' savings has an extreme effect on retirement security and that is SIPA's primary focus.

The new Common Front for Retirement Security (CFRS) founded by Dan Braniff already has fourteen organizations supporting this movement and represents millions of Canadian voters. This iniative will continue to grow under Dan's brilliant leadership.

A recent press release has generated media interest across Canada and internationally, and cannot escape Government and political party attention.

The CFRS has a new website under development that is being updated on a regular basis. It is available at http://www.retirementsecurity.ca/.
