The New 
Brunswick Pension Coalition is pulling out the legal big guns in their 
fight to get the provincial government to adopt the Shared Risk Model 
for its pension plan on a go-forward basis only. 
Coalition
 spokesperson Clifford Kennedy tells Tide News their goals haven't 
changed since they've hired Toronto lawyer Ari N. Kaplan, who has a 
track record of successfully counseling public sector pensioners. He 
says they simply want the existing agreement to be respected.
 
Kennedy 
says they decided to hire a lawyer now because the government has been 
clear that they want to go ahead with the Shared Risk Model---and the 
Coalition wants to make sure the plan members are protected.
