If you are thinking of your employer's pension plan, it's always a good idea to contribute the maximum amount that the company will match. Don't neglect making personal RRSP and/or TFSA contributions just because you have a company pension, though.

Oh haha you're right that's my bad. I meant PSPP (public service pension plan). It's a pretty good matching system, which is most excellent because I'm an easy come easy go kind of guy
