A decade ago Canada's social security system was heading towards insolvency. Major reforms introduced between 1997 and 2003 to the Canada Pension Plan (and its cousin, the Quebec Pension Plan) made the systems self-financing and actuarially balanced for the next two generations. This was accomplished by dramatically increasing the CPP payroll tax and investing pension funds to maximize returns.
