   Teachers uneasy after pensions transferred as part of provincial budget   
      
   Funds for Workers’ Compensation Board and Alberta Health Services also moved   
   to Crown corporation   
      
   Some teachers are looking for answers after learning their pensions are on the   
   move — without their consultation or approval.   
      
   Teachers' pensions are currently managed by the independent Alberta Teachers'   
   Retirement Fund Board, or ATRF, which was established in 1939.   
      
   The corporation currently administers pensions for all teachers in school   
   jurisdictions and charter schools in Alberta, with an option for private   
   school teachers to join as well.   
      
   But text of the budget released Thursday disclosed the ATRF was "expected to   
   transfer funds to Alberta Investment Management Corporation (AIMCo) for   
   management … AIMCo is expected to provide maximum returns to its clients,   
   and processes will be    
   expanded to support broader agency involvement."   
      
   An emergency fund for the Workers' Compensation Board and funds managed for   
   Alberta Health Services will also be transferred to AIMCo, according to the   
   budget.

   In a statement posted on Twitter Saturday, the Alberta Teachers' Association   
   called the move a "hijacking."
