Teachers have roughly 10% matching for their pensions. This is quite good but certainly not rare amongst professionals in Calgary.

In Alberta the union does not run the pension plan. They are co-sponsers with the government and have an independent 3rd party the ARTF run the pension.

I would hope a pension fund could pay all of its people for 5 years as they have to pay all of their people until they die. You are combing the pension fund and the unions funds into one bucket which is definitely not the case in Alberta.
