- CN Community - Hockey Helps the Homeless | cnpensioners.org
2026-2027 details coming fall 2026 CN & Hockey Helps the Homeless Thank you to those CN Pensioners who supported Hockey Helps the Homeless during the 2024–2025 season. Your time and energy helped raise $7.8 million for local shelters and housing programs across Canada. Team CN showed up in full force: 162 players and 46 volunteers across 8 cities stepped onto the ice alongside former pro players, all united by one goal: to help shutout homelessness. We’re excited to be back for the 2026–2027 tournaments ! Stay tuned for more information coming soon! About Hockey Helps the Homeless and CN Starting in 2024, CN signed on as the Premier National Partner with the Hockey Helps the Homeless (HHTH) program (details here ). The program consists of organizing and holding hockey tournaments in locations across Canada and where available, they include NHL, AHL, etc. alumni, local teams and where there is sufficient interest, a CN team (active employees). Since 1996, Hockey Helps the Homeless Canada, a not-for-profit hockey charity with over 25,000 donors, 3,500 players, and 1,000 volunteers, has granted over $28 million to face-off against homelessness. Everyone from community participants to NHL players and Olympians participate annually and "play with purpose to combat homelessness." 100% of net proceeds stay local in the city the tournament is in. HHTH partners with over 60 local homeless support agencies across Canada. For more information about Hockey Helps the Homeless events, please visit www.hockeyhelpsthehomeless.com . CN and HHTH are looking for volunteers to help make these events a success. Each event needs a group of volunteers to perform various duties during the tournament. CN and HHTH are hoping that some of our CNPA members will step forward act as volunteers at each of these locations. HHTH has advised that in terms of volunteer opportunities** for pensioners 60+ in age, there are various flexible roles including: Player Greeting Registration Player Gift/Incentives Breakfast/Lunch Time Keeping Selling Raffle Tickets ** Please note that most volunteer positions have early morning start times. NOTE: Any member/spouse volunteering for this event will qualify for our Railroaders in the Community program and can log their hours for the event and CN will contribute to HHTH. The details for the scheduled tournaments are listed below (locations where there is likely to be a "CN team" involved are indicated in the table). If you wish to become a HHTH volunteer, please go to the HHTH Volunteer Cup page at: https://hhth.akaraisin.com/ui/VolunteerCup Date Location / Lieu CN Team Expected/Équipe CN attendue Event Website / Site de l'événement 05/22/2026 Saskatoon https://hhth.akaraisin.com/ui/Sask2025 05/28/2026 Okanagan https://hhth.akaraisin.com/ui/OKG26 10/01/2026 2026-27 Coming Soon/À venir

- IPO Option to Age 65 | cnpensioners.org
Increased Pension to Age 65 Option If you retire before age 65, you may elect the increased pension to age 65 option (IPO). Under this option, you receive more from the CN Pension Plan before age 65 and less after age 65. If you choose this option, your increased CN pension will be reduced for life once you reach age 65. Your decision to elect or decline this option is personal and irrevocable. The following example illustrates how the IPO affects an employee retiring early at age 56 and 6 months on December 31, 2004: With IPO : Monthly Pension before Age 65 CN Basic Pension $2500 IPO Allowance $ 183 Total Monthly Pension $2683 Monthly Pension after Age 65* CN Basic Pension $2283 Without IPO : Monthly Pension before Age 65 CN Basic Pension $2500 IPO Allowance $ 0 Total Monthly Pension $2500 Monthly Pension after Age 65 CN Basic Pension $2500 * In this example, at age 65, the total CN monthly pension of $2,683 being paid is reduced for life by the fixed amount of $400 a month ($2,683 - $400 = $2,283). The increased pension to age 65 option is calculated so that the value of both options is, on average, the same. The amount of the IPO allowance reflects the age of the member at retirement, the applicable reduction of $400 at age 65, interest rates and whether the member retired early or on disability pension. Because survivor benefits are calculated using the CN basic pension amount, your decision to elect or decline the IPO will have no bearing on pension benefits which may become payable to your survivors.
