TORONTO - The province's Appeal Court is set to hear arguments today about whether Ontario should limit executive pensions well past six figures.
Eleanor Clitheroe, the former Hydro One CEO who was fired in 2002 amid scandal over executive salaries at the utility, is suing them.
Her pension is capped due to legislation the province passed, but she is arguing that's unfair.
Now she's receiving the maximum of about $307,000, but she argues she should get more than $464,000 a year.
In 2001, her last full year of work at Hydro One, Clitheroe took home more than $2.2 million, including $174,000 for a car and $172,000 for vacation.
