W.S.I.B. pension reduction
My W.S.I.B. pension was reduced by the same amount I received after applying for the Federal OAS in 1996, an annual figure of + or - $4000.oo. This has put me under financial stress ever since and now with the looming HST it will be even harder to make ends meet. I am aware that we are dealing with two entities, Federal and Provincial, but why doesn't the Federal government have legislation to prevent the Provinces from reducing the Provincial pay outs. I don't see it as double dipping and believe W.S.I.B. in Ontario is crossing a line which they should have no access to should we have the legislation to prevent it.
Let's face it W.S..I.B. are famous for being cheap skates but this goes too far. As an injured worker they have effectively lowered the percentage award granted in 1986 and let's not get onto the financial awards their CEO's get annually and the wage scale enjoyed by the mucky mucks in that pristine institution.
