My pension plan is government. I don't know what it is invested in, but about ten years ago the government of the day took 30 billion out of the plan because they said it was surplus.

Stocks are in the company that I work for.

My mutual funds are with one of the biggest investment companies in Canada. The particular funds that I invest in are scattered throughout the globe. I changed my exposure a while ago so that I would get a higher rate of return even though there is more risk. Even so I've more than made up for any losses during the recent economic downturn.
