Mission, Vision, and Values

Mission

The CBC Pensioners National Association exists to support and enhance the general well-being of all CBC Pensioners, from both an economic and a health perspective. The PNA is committed to being a diverse and inclusive association and provides interaction and social connections for its members. The PNA encourages a mutually respectful and meaningful working relationship with the CBC.

Vision

The PNA’s core mandate is to protect and preserve CBC pensions and benefits, and to help members live better lives as they age.

The PNA, through the Memorandum of Understanding with the CBC, is recognized as the sole voice for all CBC pensioners. Its role as advocate is the most fundamental role the PNA plays on behalf of its members.

The role of advocate is demonstrated in a variety of ways, primarily for individual members facing difficulties related to their pensions or benefits, and with the CBC as the sponsor of members’ pension and benefits plans. The PNA seeks to develop partnerships with other organizations that share common values and goals.

Recognizing the importance of educating and influencing decision-makers on matters consistent with our members’ interests is key to the success of the Association.

Through a variety of social and virtual events, the PNA works to help members maintain their connections with each other and create and build a vibrant community.

Values

The PNA is unanimously committed to:

    • Transparency and Integrity in governance and decision-making
    • Accountability to members for its actions
    • Collaboration in working together at all levels of the organization
    • Respect in interactions and communications
    • Inclusiveness so that all members feel welcome
