The Canada Pension Plan (CPP) investment board will hold a public meeting from 6 to 8 pm on April 16 at the BMO Centre.
Registration for the public is closed, but organizers say there is room for some walk-ins.
The board holds public meetings across Canada every two years to update people on the fund’s performance, governance and investment approach.
The pension plan has been a hot topic in Alberta over the past year, after the provincial government released a commissioned report examining the possibility of the Alberta Pension Plan (APP).
According to the report, if Alberta gave the required three-year notice to leave the CPP, it would be entitled to $334 billion, or about 53 percent of the fund by 2027.
However, critics say that is an overestimate.
First Minister Danielle Smith has said she will not call a referendum on the subject until the Office of the Chief Actuary releases an updated number.
More information about the public meetings can be found on the CPP Investments website.
