FEDERAL ELECTIONS

For the 2019 Federal Election campaign, the Montreal Branch had decided to send the candidates of the 43 different districts in our territory a "communiqué" asking them to tell us what are their opinion concerning the four priorities of the Federal Retirees namely:

• Improving retirement income security
• Prioritizing pharmacare
• Implementing a national strategy for seniors
• Improve the well-being of veterans and their families

Our "communiqué" was sent at the end of September to approximatly 150 candidates, for those whose email address were available, to the 5 principal political parties.  To see our communiqué, please click hereafter:  Communiqué
