Default NHS. Pension tax free lump sum

Is the bit that's tax free in the UK tax free in Canada?

That's my question, thank you very much

On a slight tangent ....I wonder if they'll ever give a lump sum option for the state pension?! Hope so!

What he said.

Edited to add: if you take a lump sum it is added to your taxable income in Canada but you can split it with your OH which might reduce the tax hit a bit.

Thanks, as I suspected. The spliting bit is good to know. That will help.
