     Employers located in Quebec are responsible for deducting Québec Pension Plan (QPP) contributions, instead
     of CPP contributions, from their Québec employees and remitting those contributions to Revenu Québec (RQ). 
 
+The Canada Pension Plan (CPP) was designed as an income replacement program for
+individuals who have been in pensionable employment during their working life. A CPP
+retirement pension is a monthly benefit paid to people who have contributed to the Canada
+Pension Plan. The pension is designed to replace about 25 percent of the earnings on which a
+person's contributions were based. Individuals can apply for their CPP retirement pension
+when they turn 60.
+There are three Canada Pension Plan benefits:
+
+
+
+retirement pension
+disability benefits (for contributors with a disability and their dependent children)
+survivor benefits (including the death benefit, the survivor's pension and the children's
+benefit)
+The CPP operates throughout Canada while the province of Québec administers its own
+program for workers in Québec called the Québec Pension Plan (QPP). The two plans work
+together to ensure that all contributors are protected, no matter where the individual lives.
+Québec Pension Plan requirements will be covered later in this course.
