Here's what CNPA membership does for you. Still not a member? Then you can join here Why Membership Matters Membership consists of retired CN employees, surviving spouses and honorary members as well as retirees and their spouses from groups formerly connected with CN (i.e. VIA Rail and Marine Atlantic). Active employees can be admitted as social members without voice or vote. "Bridged" employees are also eligible for membership to the CN Pensioners' Association. Although we advocate on behalf of all CN Pensioners and surviving spouses as volunteers, operating expenses are a reality. If you are not already a contributing member, by becoming one for only $1.00 a month, you can help defray such expenses. Your $1 per month will entitle you to several membership benefits and as information, approximately $0.83 of your $1 per month is returned to your local council of choice for their use. It is easy to become a member – just go to our sign up form below or email us at membership@cnpensioners.org .

2025 CNPA Scholarships Winners The CN Pensioners’ Association Scholarship Committee has now completed the 13th year of our scholarship program. The awards in the amount of $1,500 each to children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren of “contributing” members of the CNPA have been mailed to the successful applicants. The success of this project will be discussed thoroughly at our Annual Directors' Meeting in November 2025 with the possibility of offering it once again for the 2026-2027 scholastic year. In addition to the 25 CNPA National Council awards, there were several $1,500 bursaries and scholarships administered and awarded by Regional/Provincial or Local Councils to eligible candidates: Moncton Council No. 1 funded 2 additional scholarships for applicants that were sponsored by Moncton Council members Quebec region funded 2 trades bursaries in honor of Luc Grenier. Ontario Provincial Council also awarded an additional bursary Manitoba Provincial Council awarded five Harvey Hosfield bursaries and a trade bursary The Scholarship Committee and all the local selection committees (27 volunteers, most with several years participation) would like to take this opportunity to thank CN Pensioners/survivors and their families for their interest and participation in this program. We thank all those applicants who took the time and effort to prepare their professional submissions. In particular, the students all deserve hearty congratulations for all the volunteer work they perform in their communities. This year we received 203 applications. Sadly 42 were rejected for various reasons under the submission rules. Disqualifications were primarily due to no résumé submitted, missing or incomplete marks, the applicant’s parent or grandparent not being a CNPA contributing member, unacceptable or no proof of registration.
