More Information
The distribution for December 2025 will be a total of $1533.01. This amount includes $533.01 (Regular Distribution and Cost-of-Living Adjustment) and a Special One-time Distribution of $1000.
A Cost-of-Living Adjustment is an increase to help people keep up with rising prices for everyday things such as food, housing, and transportation. It’s designed to make sure your money can still buy the same amount, even when the cost of living goes up because of inflation. All annual distribution payments will increase by a Cost-of-Living Adjustment tied to the Canadian Consumer Price Index (CPI). For 2025, the CPI’s Cost-of-Living Adjustment is 2.6 per cent.
Distribution cheques will be issued from Scotiabank for the upcoming distribution. Squamish People who are not BMO clients are encouraged to go to the following Scotiabank locations to cash their cheques:
North Shore: Scotiabank Park Royal South branch (across BMO Park Royal; 955 Park Royal South, West Vancouver)
Squamish Valley: Scotiabank (38049 Cleveland Avenue, Squamish)
Squamish People who are clients of the Bank of Montreal (BMO) and hold accounts with BMO can still go to BMO to cash their cheques.
