Puckridge is one of about 150,000 British retirees who don’t receive annual increases in their U.K. pension payments because they live in Canada. The British government was willing at one time to index British pensions in Canada. 560,000: British pensioners living outside the U.K. in countries where their pensions are not indexed. 150,000: The number of those frozen pensioners living in Canada. 500 million: What the U.K. government estimates annual cost-of-living increases to those retirees with frozen pensions would cost in British pounds.
