NOTICE TO MEMBERS – ANNUAL INFORMATION MEETING
November 15, 2024
It has come to our attention that several members have just received our Fall 2024 newsletter, which featured an invitation to the Annual Information Meeting that took place on November 13. We are investigating how this occurred, as the newsletters were supposed to have been mailed by our print provider well in advance of the meeting, ensuring you had an opportunity to register and attend the meeting. We do not take this matter lightly as this annual event is very important to us, and knowing members were unable to attend it live is very disappointing.

A recording of the meeting is available now at cbenb.ca/2024aim. The CBE Pension Plan is in excellent financial health, and there is a lot of great news that was shared about the Plan.

If you have any questions about the information shared, please submit them to info@cbenb.ca. Your questions will be shared directly with the presenters and answered as quickly as possible.

Thank you.
