Ethics commissioner rules on WE Charity



Departing his job in Parliament with his chair.. Trudeau ends his political career with a telling photo... I suppose the chair was his "souvenir" of his time spent in Ottawa's parliament? A free chair and a fantastic big pension cheque every year .. read more here:  Newsroom


OTTAWA, ON: The Canadian Taxpayers Federation is calling on all party leaders to commit to ending the second pension for prime ministers.

“Taxpayers can’t afford to pay for all of the perks in Ottawa and the government should start saving money by ending the prime minister’s second taxpayer-funded pension,” said Franco Terrazzano, CTF Federal Director. “Prime ministers already take a salary nearly six times more than the average Canadian and they already get a lucrative MP pension, so taxpayers shouldn’t be on the hook for a second pension for prime ministers.”

Trudeau will collect two taxpayer-funded pensions in retirement. Combined, those pensions total $8.4 million, according to CTF estimates.

First, there’s the MP pension.

The payouts for Trudeau’s MP pension will begin at $141,000 per year when he turns 55 years old. It will total an estimated $6.5 million should he live to the age of 90.

Then there’s the prime minister’s pension.

“A prime minister who holds the Office of the Prime Minister for at least four years is entitled to receive a special retirement allowance in addition to their members of Parliament pension benefit,” according to the government of Canada.

The payouts for Trudeau’s prime minister pension will begin at $73,000 per year when he turns 67 years old. It will total an estimated $1.9 million should he live to the age of 90.

Add the $6.5-million MP pension to the $1.9-million prime minister’s pension and Trudeau will collect a total of about $8.4 million.

The prime minister’s current annual salary is $406,200.

Trudeau’s pension payouts would be even higher if not for reforms implemented in 2012, which increased the retirement age, cut benefits and saw MPs increase their own contributions. Prior to the reforms, MPs contributed just $1 for every $24 of taxpayer and federal monies invested in their pensions.

Former prime minister Stephen Harper forfeited an estimated $1 million to $2 million in additional payouts by implementing the reforms. Nevertheless, the CTF estimates Harper’s lifetime pensions will total about $7 million.

“A prime minister already takes millions through their first pension, they shouldn’t be billing taxpayers more for their second pension,” Terrazzano said. “Taxpayers need to see leadership at the top and all party leaders should commit to ending the second pension for future prime ministers.”

Adam Duras Reports on the PCNB Leadership Selection Process on Twitter


See reporter Adam Huras' series of helpful posts below:


The New Brunswick Progressive Conservatives announce that they will pick their next leader on October 17, 2026, while laying out a timeline for leadership candidates in the path to get there. #NB



October 20, 2025: Party starts accepting nomination applications June 19, 2026: Application deadline Entrance fee: $35,000.


For reference, that $35,000 is $5,000 higher than Liberal fee that led to Susan Holt's win in a four-horse race including Donald Arseneault, Robert Gauvin, and T.J. Harvey.


To vote? The rules say party members must pay a $40 registration fee to become an elector. A non-member must purchase a two-year membership and pay the registration fee for a combined $50.


The Liberal leadership convention had no fees to vote, and no fee to registered Liberals who wanted to attend the convention.


Also interesting: Only voting my mail.

It's also one vote, preferential ballot. That sadly removes all the fun that was the 2016 convention with all the scramble for endorsements re: Monica Barley and Jake Stewart. That was one hell of a day. #NB


Was asked if interim leader Glen Savioe can run... The answer is yes, if he resigns by July 1, according to the rules.

To summarize this New Brunswick PC leadership thread… -$35,000 entrance fee -$40 fee to vote (plus $10 if no membership) -All voting by mail -One vote, preferential ballot -Candidate deadline: June 19, 2026 -Convention date: October 17, 2026 #NB #PCNB
