Non-assignment of Benefits
Pension benefits, except additional voluntary employee contributions, may not be assigned, sold or used as security for a loan.

Pension benefits are exempt from seizure or attachment, and cannot have a lien or garnishment put on them, except in cases of marriage breakdown.

Under the province's Family Relations Act , a pension benefit is considered a family asset
