A comprehensive new report from the National Institute on Ageing in Canada states that:

...(f)undamentally, the lack of adequate decumulation solutions in our retirement income system is putting the financial, social, mental and physical well-being of ageing Canadians at risk.

The global consensus, built on academic studies and practical examples, is that (tontine style) pools are an effective, inclusive and sustainable solution to the decumulation challenge. With the legislative changes identified in this report, all Canadians could gain access to (tontine) pools — the missing link in our retirement income system today.
