Parliamentary committee proceedings – National Assembly of Québec
Dear Members,
As we all know, the Quebec government has now tabled pension reform legislation for universities. The APBU, having carefully examined Bill 75, decided to respond to several concerns over this proposed Bill. This month the APBU submitted a report to the Commission de l’économie et du travail (CET) outlining our major concerns over this proposed legislation, and proposing changes to address these concerns.
On February 18th the APBU, represented by Ginny Stroeher and Francis-Carl Rivard (APBU actuary), met with the CET to present our key concerns and to answer questions that MNAs had around our submitted report. I’ve attached a copy of this report here, (or word document) and below is a link to our meeting with the CET at the National Assembly.
Respectfully,
Ginny Stroeher – President, APBU
