INTERNATIONAL CPP A DEVICE FOR ALLEGATION & MISCONDUCT

Canada has international social security agreements with over 50 countries that offer pension programs comparable to the Canada Pension Plan (CPP). This means that Canadian citizens from these listed countries can often transfer their work experience and receive benefits from Canada. However, many countries are not on this list, and citizens from these non-listed countries must apply directly to their country of origin for pension benefits.

While this disparity might appear to be a form of discrimination among immigrants, that is not the focus here. Instead, what needs to be highlighted are the significant barriers, accusations, and even mislabeling as "rich" that individuals from non-agreement countries face when attempting to transfer their CPP from their country of origin. This often occurs because their native currency values, when converted to Canadian dollars, appear as millions before exchange but dwindle to mere hundreds afterward.

The question then arises: if Canada has, for whatever reason, excluded certain countries from its social security agreements, why not at least facilitate the transfer of CPP benefits for those individuals and prevent the spread of baseless accusations and rumors?
