British government policy excludes UK pensioners who live in Canada from receiving normal pension increases, although this freeze does not apply to UK pensioners who retire in the United States or many other countries.

There are are over 130,000 UK pensioners living in Canada who have not had a pension increase in years. This is clearly unfair. It is recommended that the Government take whatever action is necessary to extend yearly State Pension increases to UK pensioners living in Canada.
