In todays dollars a teacher at the top of the salary grid makes $103,000 so essentially by the formula my pension would be about $48,000 in todays dollars if I choose to retire then (47% of salary). I wouldn’t be eligible for CPP yet but I also can’t see myself subbing after I retire, when I’m done, I’m done. So for a few years between 57 and 65 I’ll have to rely on other investments because 48k a year likely won’t cut it with 23 and 20 year old kids.

No offence, but boo f*c*'n hoo, 99% of people work to at least 65 and most don't even have a work pension, if you can't sub for a few years get a stress-less job at Walmart to add to the 48k pension. and your 23 and 20 year old kids should be making their own money by then
