Dealing with the Death of a CN Pensioner You may be here because you recently lost a loved one or are assisting someone who has. If so, we would like to extend our deepest condolences to you and the family from everyone at the CN Pensioners Association (CNPA). It is always heartbreaking when we hear that a fellow CN Pensioner or their spouse or survivor has passed away. We recognize that this is a difficult time for the family and realize the issues you will face dealing with the loss. To assist family members manage what can be a difficult process, we have developed various checklists and links which may help make the process a bit easier. While we have attempted to list most usual items to be addressed or handled, the lists are not exhaustive and will not address every unique or unusual situation. Accordingly, you may often need specific professional, legal, financial or other outside support and we encourage you to get all the assistance you may require. These checklists were primarily developed to assist those receiving a CN Pension. Other CN retirees may also find the non-CN Pension information helpful. 1. Contact CN Pension and Benefits Administration When a CN Pensioner passes away, there are a number of things the spouse or family needs to do, but one thing that is important is to contact CN Pension & Benefits Administration as quickly as possible. Call them at: 1-800-361-0739 – Monday to Friday, from 8 AM to 6 PM Eastern Time CN Pension & Benefits Administration will ensure that necessary paperwork gets started and if there is an eligible spouse, that there is limited delay in managing their survivor pension. In addition, by contacting them, they will: Get all the necessary information from you to start managing the process. This includes mailing specific forms/documents related to the pension, for completion, signatures and submission back to them. Start the process for an eligible survivor pension. If there is a CN sponsored life insurance policy, CN Pension & Benefits Administration will notify the insurance company who will then write the spouse or estate and provide information on how to file a claim. If the CN Pensioner was a member of the CN Pensioners Association, this membership will be cancelled with the last pension payment. If the surviving spouse wishes, they may re-enroll via the application form that will be provided in the package from CN Pension & Benefits Administration. Who should call CN Pension & Benefits Administration? If there is an eligible spouse, and they are able to, they should be the person to call. Someone who is registered with CN Pension & Benefits Administration as a Power of Attorney for the deceased CN Pensioner, or the spouse of the deceased CN Pensioner. The person designated as the Executor/Administrator of the estate of the deceased CN Pensioner. If none of the above are available, a family member who is acting for the deceased. What information should they have on hand when they call? The unique 6 digit Personal Identification Number (PIN) of the deceased CN Pensioner. This may be found on previous annual pension statements, CN pension deposit notices, CN tax slips, a CNPA membership card, the original retirement forms or CN correspondence. The date of birth and the date of death of the CN Pensioner The residential address of the deceased CN Pensioner The Social Insurance Number of the deceased CN Pensioner If there is an eligible spouse of the deceased pensioner and they are contacting CN Pension & Benefits Administration, or if someone acting on behalf of the spouse is calling, they should also have the following information available about the spouse: Spouse’s date of birth Spouse’s Social Insurance Number Spouse’s residential address – especially if it will be different than the deceased pensioner Spouse’s phone number Bank account information An Estate Executor or a Power of Attorney or Administrator acting on behalf of the deceased CN Pensioner or the surviving spouse would need all the preceding information when calling Following the call, a package will be prepared and mailed to the appropriate person or party and will include various forms to complete and a list of required documents to provide (such as a copy of the death certificate for example). Although the payment of the survivor pension may commence following the notification of the member’s death, it may be suspended if the required documents aren’t received in a timely fashion after the package has been issued. In the event that there is no eligible spouse at time of death, there is still the possibility that there may be a benefit payable. CN Pension & Benefits Administration will provide all necessary information in this regard to the appropriate person or party. NOTE: When a CN Pensioner passes away, and their eligible surviving spouse commences receiving their survivor CN pension, the surviving spouse is now considered to be a CN Pensioner, and will assume the PIN of the deceased CN Pensioner. If a surviving spouse deceases, the processes listed above for a deceased pensioner will now apply to this surviving spouse. If the CN Pensioner had a CN Travel Pass – they should contact CN Pension and Benefits Administration and ask about continued eligibility. For additional guidance, please refer to the following flyers: the Pension Reference Guide and the Retiree Profile for Survivors and Estate. The Pension Reference Guide provides information on when to contact CN Pension and Benefits Administration. The Retiree Profile for Survivors and Estate outlines key information and emphasizes the importance of prompt communication with CN Pension and Benefits Administration in the event of a pensioner’s death. We encourage you to share this document with the person who will handle your affairs after your death. 2. Health Care Plan for CN Pensioners Was the CN Pensioner enrolled in the CN Pensioners Association Health Care Plan administered by Medavie Blue Cross under Plan number 93115? If they were, when contact is made with CN Pension & Benefits Administration, they will advise Medavie Blue Cross of the individual’s passing. If the CN Pensioner’s spouse was covered under the Pensioner member’s plan, Medavie Blue Cross will continue coverage for the spouse at no charge but for only two (2) additional months. These 2 months provide time for the new pension papers to be processed and allows an eligible surviving spouse the opportunity to reapply for coverage if desired. Important - The original policy for the deceased pensioner, that included the spouse, will be cancelled at the end of the 2 month free period for the spouse and the current Blue Cross cards will be invalidated. An eligible spouse must REAPPLY if desired. If there is an eligible spouse who will be receiving a CN survivor pension, included with the pension documents that will be sent from CN Pension & Benefits Administration will be a new Medavie Blue Cross information package & application. If the eligible spouse is interested, they can join/rejoin the CN Pensioners Association Health Care Plan. Even if the CN Pensioner and/or the eligible spouse was not previously covered by the CN Pensioners Association Health Care Plan, an eligible spouse will still receive a Medavie Blue Cross information package and application and may submit their application to join the Plan. An eligible spouse who intends to apply or reapply must submit their application form to Medavie Blue Cross in the enclosed enveloped within 60 days of receiving their survivor pension. If not, they will not be eligible to reapply later. (Exceptions may apply in Quebec) If the Spouse is not eligible for the CN survivor pension, they will also not be eligible for CN Pensioner Blue Cross Plan coverage. If there were any outstanding medical claims not previously submitted, please submit them as quickly as possible. If unsure about the process on how to claim or time limits, call Medavie Blue Cross at 1-866-660-7670. If there was NO eligible surviving spouse or if the surviving spouse chooses NOT to apply for coverage, the spouse or estate should contact Medavie Blue Cross at 1-866-660-7670, as there may be a reimbursable overpayment of premium. If the SPOUSE of a current covered CN Pensioner deceases, the Pensioner should contact Medavie Blue directly to review options to change their coverage. CN Post Retirement Health Care Spending Account Some former unionized CN Pensioners may receive this benefit from Canadian National following retirement between the ages of 55 and 65. If the deceased pensioner is between those ages, please contact Medavie Blue Cross at 1-866-660-7670, who administers this benefit for CN.

In addition, Contact information is provided below for Via Rail, Marine Atlantic and CN/CP Telecommunications Pensioners.

CN Railroaders in the Community Thanks for 2025 Efforts & Changes for 2026 Hello Railroaders, Thank you once again for those who participated in the Railroaders in the Community program. Many of you have shown your commitment and generosity by volunteering your time and skills to non-profit organizations which matter to you. Here are some of the amazing results that our retirees have accomplished through the program in 2025. A total of 468 volunteers submitted hours into the program Those 468 volunteers raised more than $1M for their favourite charities - a total of $1,012,427 The $1M+ total for 2025 was an incredible 83% higher than what the program raised just 3 years ago. Thanks in part to you, the Railroaders in the Community program was once again successful in 2025. To maintain the program’s sustainability while continuing to recognize and reward your contributions, the following adjustments will be made to the program starting in 2026 : The maximum volunteer reward hours per eligible participant will be 100 hours per year . CN will now cover the 2.9% Benevity service charge, ensuring that your chosen organizations receive the full amount earned through your volunteer hours Incentive bonuses now awarded based upon winners of a draw from the pool of all CNPA volunteers The reward rate remains at $15 per hour volunteered If you have any questions, please contact RailroadersintheCommunity@cn.ca . CN is proud of the hundreds of employees, their families, and retirees who give generously of their time to local causes through our CN Railroaders in the Community (RRITC) program . These volunteers are part of the social fabric of the many cities, towns and villages across our entire North American network, helping to make their communities better places to live and work. CN supports their efforts by providing charitable donations to the organizations where CN railroaders volunteer. Each hour of volunteer work earns a $15 reward, up to a maximum of 100 hours or $1500 per retiree per year (including volunteer hours completed by their spouse/surviving spouse). There is no limit to the number of organizations a CN retiree and the spouses/surviving spouses of CN retirees can volunteer with. We are also happy to confirm that if you have already started volunteering in your community this year, any volunteer hours accumulated since January 1 for a recognized charity will qualify for a reward in the same calendar year. Please note that reward funds are always disbursed at the end of the month following approval. For example, if your hours were approved on March 6, the funds will be disbursed on April 30. If your organization is set up to receive cheques, please allow 3 to 4 weeks for delivery. If they are set up for EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer), the funds will arrive immediately once disbursed. The funds are not issued directly by CN but by the Benevity Online Giving Foundation. Thanks to CN's digital platform SPARK , you can easily track your volunteer hours and see when the donation to your charity was made.

Terry Fox Run - September 20, 2026 On April 12, 1980, Terry Fox dipped his prosthetic leg into the Atlantic Ocean and began one of the most inspiring journeys in Canadian history, the Marathon of Hope. With a vision of ending the suffering caused by cancer, he set off from St. John’s, Newfoundland, determined to run a marathon (42 km) every day across Canada. For 143 consecutive days, he pushed forward through pain, fatigue, and every obstacle imaginable before cancer forced him to stop in Thunder Bay, Ontario, on September 1, 1980. 46 years later, Terry’s vision lives on The Terry Fox Foundation honours his legacy by organizing Terry Fox Runs in over 10,000 communities across Canada to support life-changing cancer research. As CN railroaders, our connection to the Terry Fox story runs deep. Terry’s father dedicated 36 years to CN, beginning his career as a railroader, making this cause one that truly hits close to home. Year after year, Team CN shows up with pride and purpose. In 2025, more than 327 CN railroaders, pensioners and their families participated in the Terry Fox Run in Montreal, Toronto, Barrie, Winnipeg, Edmonton, Kamloops and Prince George. This year let’s honour that legacy by showing up in even greater numbers.

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.
