The MPRA is hoping to increase our Membership to 20,000 members as a goal so that the government, the union of BC Municipalities and the Union Leadership will support us.

2024 COST OF LIVING ADJUSTMENT
“2024 Cost-of-Living Adjustment: The board approved a cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) to regular pensions in pay of 3.89 per cent, effective January 1, 2024. This is the equivalent to the increase in the Canadian consumer price index (CPI) between September 2022 and September 2023.”
We want to thank the Municipal Pension Board of Trustees for recognizing the impact of the increasing Consumer Price Index on retirees in making this decision.
