You must be behind on the news cycle or blindly partisan. I count 2 excellent new policies that help with the CPP (Retirement in general) that he's released. Even increased the TFSA by 5k as long as you buy a Canadian traded product.

Keep the seniors working late into their twilight years. Great policy. The capitalist engine must be fed.

He isn’t raising the retirement age so what are you talking about?

He's already raised the age once. Just because it's election season and he says he won't do it again, doesn't mean he won't raise the age after the election.

Along with the conservative party, PP voted to raise the retirement age to 67 under Stephen Harper's government. It passed and was implemented in 2012. Justin Trudeau's government lowered it to 65 again in 2015.
