TRANSFORMING INTO A GLOBAL CHAMPION
PENSION DEFICIT ELIMINATED
-
SIGNIFICANT REALLOCATION OF CAPITAL TO OTHER USES
As at January 1, 2016, aggregate solvency surplus in domestic registered
pension plans is $1.3B
Plans are in a solvency surplus position therefore no past service cost payments
made in 2016
Plans funded at 105% or more therefore no contributions are required for current
service as long as the solvency position is not reduced to less than 105%
Total pension funding contributions are forecast to be $94M, on a cash basis, for
2016 vs $312M in 2015 - cash savings of $218M
■ Risk significantly mitigated

75% of pension liabilities matched with fixed income products

Improved financial flexibility to fund capital expenditure programs, lower
debt levels and return value to shareholders
