Abstract

The future of Canada Pension plan, which is financed on pay-as-you-go principles (where current revenues are spent to meet current costs) , is far from certain. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate in an overlapping generations framework how demographic factors not only affect taxes required to finance the prescribed benefits, but also affect wages
