There is hope that housewives who work within the home may be eligible to receive the Canada Pension sometime in the for- seeable future. The Honourable Marc Lalonde, Minister of National Health and Welfare, in presenting a discussion paper on Housewives and the Canada Pension Plan to the House of Commons Stan- ding Committee on Health, Welfare and Social Affairs laid out some suggestions and presented problems in carrying out such a program. At present only wage earners and self-employed persons are able to participate in the com- pulsory Canada Pension Plan. The issue of the housewife. ad the Canada Pension was set forth by the Royal Commission on' the Status of Women: "The housewife who remains at home is just as much a producer of goods and services as the paid worker, and in our view she should also have the opportunity to provide for a more financially secure future. Canada has given some of its workers an op- portunity to do this through the Canada and the Quebec Pension Plans. To neglect to do the same for some three and one-half million other workers in the home is to ignore the essential nature of their work." Those who advocate the par- ticipation of housewives in the Canada Pension Plan have two goals in mind; (a) to give recognition to work in the home as regular employment; (b) to provide some measure of financial independence to the housewife . . .especially in her retirement years. In his paper, Minister Lalonde ciPALEK TRICIAN"sAvs CALL AN ELECTRIC/AN YOU CAN TRUST, WHEN SPENDING HARD EARNE1, MONEY THIS /S A MI/ST G. L. SLAGHT • PLUMBING • HEATING • ELECTRICAL Crediton 234-6381 makes some suggestions as to how housewives might be worked into the Canada Pension Plan and benefit from it. The paper states in part: "to create a cash income for the housewife by requiring the husband to pay her a wage for her work in the home. Because she would then be receiving a regular wage, the housewife would contribute to the Plan in her own right and so build up her own pension entitlements." However he points out, ". . . it seems unlikely that most Canadians would find this to be a satisfactory alternative." Another approach to the problem suggested by the Royal Commission on the Status of Wqmen would involve splitting pc4sion credits. This would be done by "crediting to the spouse remaining at home a portion of the contributions of the employed spouse and those contributions made by the employer on the employed spouse's behalf." The Minister points out that while this approach seems at- tractive in many respects there would be questions and problems to be worked out especially in the case of marriage breakdown. Another alternative put for- ward in the paper is to permit the housewife to contribute to the Canada Pension Plan on an op- tional basis, as a self-employed worker. But, again Minister Lalonde states this idea is not tISMOKEMM.M. • Custom Slaughtering and Processing To Individual Requirements Cattle and Hogs are Government Inspected in our Modern Abattoir for Your Protection.

Wives in lower income families would have an extremely limited capacity to take advantage of such an opportunity."
