The Canada Pension Plan Investment Board will hold a public meeting in Calgary

The Canada Pension Plan (CPP) Investment Board will hold a public meeting on April 16 at the BMO Center from 6 to 8 p.m.

Registration is closed to the public, but organizers say there is room for some walk-ins.

The Board holds public meetings in Canada every two years to update information on the fund's operations, management and investment approach.

The pension plan became a hot topic in Alberta last year after the provincial government released a report examining the feasibility of the Alberta Pension Plan (APP).

If Alberta gives the required three-year notice to withdraw from the CPP, it will be eligible for $334 billion, or about 53 per cent of the fund, by 2027, according to the report.

However, critics say this is an overstatement.

Premier Daniel Smith said he would not call a referendum on the subject until the Office of the Actuary General released an updated number.
