Original Toronto Star caption: Looking ahead to 2001: Stan Fisher; 43; director of communications at York University; and his wife; Marg; look over pension plans for their retirement in 2001. By then 11 percent of the population will be over 65 and economists warn the burden on workers to support the aged will be intolerable and that runaway inflation will seriously reduce pensions.
