Currently, the Canada Pension Plan (CPP) manages $ Limilione tse likete 421 on behalf of over 20 million working and retired Canadians. It is one of the largest pension funds in the world. Because of its size and influence, how the CPP invests our retirement dollars is a major factor in which industries thrive and which recede in the decades to come.

The CPP has $ Limilione tse likete 21.72 e tseteletsoeng ho bahlahisi ba mafura a khale a le mong le khafetsa $ Limilione tse 870 in global weapons dealers. This includes $76 million invested in Lockheed Martin, $38 million in Northrop Grumman, and $70 million in Boeing.

As of March 31, 2022, the Canada Pension Plan had $ Limilione tse 524 e tsetelitsoeng ho tse 11 ho tse 112 tse thathamisitsoeng ho Database ea UN as complicit with Israeli violations of international law.

The CPP’s influence not only provides core financial support to global weapons dealers directly benefiting from war, it also provides social license to the military-industrial complex and disincentivizes moves to peace.
