The first budget for the majority Conservative budget promised to do away with the penny, raise the eligibility age for Old Age Security from 65 to 67 and slash $5.2 billion in spending, including 12,000 public service jobs.

this is an insurance
no one can be guaranteed to collect the benefits
just like you buy auto insurance and never have an accident in your life
would anyone thank you for your "donation"?

That's a bit of a difference.
For car insurance, one would not want to utilize it unless that day comes...
But for OAS, one cannot stop thinking about it when you go pass 60... OAS is more like a benefit, those who do not contribute (paying tax) would still benefit from it...
