In the oil crunch most company's retired workers over 55 allowing the younger workers to keep their jobs. Losing your job 7-8 years before your planned retirement date can be a crushing blow, there are thousands of people in the same position with the same job skills looking for jobs. Years ago you could pull your retirement early supplementing your income with a part time job now all these jobs are filled by the new Canadians. Retiring at 67 sounds good if your job lasts that long.
