In my mind, and I could be wrong, as I'm not a financial planner, it seems to me that if they're okay to work and they can earn a full wage, it would seem better, in their interests, to earn the wage and not be on the pension. Because they would have the CPP deductions coming off their paycheques, and when they retire and turn 60, their Canada pension amount would be more. Now, I don't know exactly how the clawback from a pension would work. Are there any thoughts on that? It may be too detailed--
