Paul Kershaw, the founder of Generation Squeeze, which is a charitable “think and change tank” with a mandate to “champion generational fairness,” is urging the federal government to do just that and change up the retirement benefit.

“You could spend our OAS money differently right now and achieve other goals without having to raise taxes. And you could do so, for instance, by asking more financially secure retirees to take slightly less,” he said.
