Better to opt out of the CPP now, then to wait for it's value to hit zero and be forced to 'opt out'.

I'm not a financial planner or an accountant, but I wouldn't factor to much CPP income into your retirement planning.
What happens to the money Albertans have already put into CPP? What would happen if you lived in Alberta for 10 years, paid into AlbertaPP, and then moved to Manitoba? Would AlbertaPP just get paid out to you? Would the AlbertaPP and CPP be completely interchangeable?

I'm not sure our own pension plan would work logisitically...
