The Atlantica Party will reform Nova Scotia MLA pensions.
The Atlantica Party's mission of a smaller, more transparent and accountable government means our representatives need to set an example of lower costs and less waste. Therefore, an Atlantica Party government will replace the current 22 to 1 (that is, taxpayers contribute directly and indirectly 22 times more than the MLA) pension scheme with dollar for dollar personally directed RRSPs where MLAs and taxpayers contribute equally.
This is fair and easy to understand. It is also the same retirement plan that many working Nova Scotians have. All Atlantica Party MLAs will be bound by this whether it is the law or not.
Pension reform is part of the Atlantica Party's more comprehensive reform of MLA salaries and benefits.

The Atlantica Party was established in 2006 to promote a political revolution in Nova Scotia to fix our broken political system and empower the voter. It is the only political alternative committed to making Nova Scotia a "have" province.
