(your next opportunity will be in June 2018)
The Canadian Pension Plan Investment Board will be holding a public meeting at the Comfort Inn on Blanshard at 10:00 am, Monday, June 6th.
Here's your opportunity to learn how they manage our pension investment funds and to comment on directions you feel they could take.
The CPPIB's current investments are shown on this web-page http://www.cppib.com/en/what-we-do/our-investments.html and they include private equity plus the following public equity holdings:
Canadian publicly-traded investments

There is a "wealth" of information/provocation on their web-site, including the 2015 annual report, which you probably will be given a hard copy of at the meeting.

And this "Responsible Investing" document details their active engagement and focus on issues of climate change, water, extractive industries and exec compensation.

Please try to attend and to share your opinions. If you prefer to participate in the webcast from home, here are the instructions for registering as well as the schedule of simultaneous, open public meetings (can you alert friends in these other cities?) http://www.cppib.com/en/public-media/public-meetings.html
Two years ago this meeting was very poorly attended. This year let's be sure to let them know that people in Greater Victoria are very concerned about how our pension funds are invested.
