CALGARY, AB: Just in time for National Seniors Day (October 1) the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) released a report today that examines how prepared provincial governments are for our nation's aging population.
"Most provinces haven't bothered to properly assess how our nation's aging population will impact their finances," said Colin Craig, author of the report and Interim Alberta Director for the CTF. "They're operating like a 63-year-old who has a pile of debt and hasn't bothered to think about planning for the future. Unless provincial governments start taking the situation seriously, we're going to see tax hikes."
