Hi Charlie, don't know whether to class this as good news or bad. It will be 
interesting to see if he is appointed to head or be a member of the pension 
committee.  Bob

Hi everyone,


Not sure if you all saw the news that BCE has just appointed Daniel Denison, 
the former President and CEO of the Canada Pension Plan, to the Board of 
Directors. The Globe and Mail wrote:


It’s only been a few months since David Denison retired from running the Canada 
Pension Plan Investment Board and he’s already picking up board seats.
On Thursday, BCE Inc. announced that Mr. Denison, who is 60 this year, is 
joining its board of directors.
In late August, Mr. Denison picked up a seat on Royal Bank of Canada’s board. 
He is also a member of the World Bank’s Treasury Expert Advisory Committee.
You may recall that at the September Pension Committee meeting, I indicated 
that the former CPP President had just given a speech to the C.D. Howe 
Institute that raised some imprtant issues about Canadians' pensions. I am 
attaching that speech for your own reading since I expect that Mr. Denison will 
be playing a large part in assisting Bell with its own pension plan.
I am sure we will hear more about Mr. Denison in the future,


Charlie
