Welcome to Hanako Sushi (https://hanakosushi.ca/), an independent digital information platform dedicated to delivering timely news, updates, and guidance related to government-run schemes and public benefit programs in Canada. While the name may sound unique, our mission is clear and focused—helping Canadians better understand the benefits, payments, and policy changes that directly affect their financial security and retirement planning.
Hanako Sushi operates as a news and updates portal, covering a wide range of topics connected to retirement benefits, income support programs, and government-administered assistance. Our core areas of focus include Canada Pension Plan (CPP) updates, Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) benefits, Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS) changes, retirement-related payment schedules, stimulus or relief payments, and other important announcements that impact seniors and working Canadians alike.
In addition to financial benefits, we also provide informational updates on old-age driving licence rules, renewal requirements, and policy changes that affect senior drivers across different provinces. These updates are designed to help older adults stay informed, compliant, and confident as regulations evolve.
Our Purpose
Navigating government programs can often feel confusing, overwhelming, and time-consuming. Hanako Sushi exists to simplify this process. Our goal is to present complex policy updates in a clear, reader-friendly format, making it easier for individuals and families to understand what assistance may be available, who qualifies, and when payments or changes may take effect.
We focus on educational and informational content only. Our articles are written to explain publicly available announcements, benefit structures, timelines, and eligibility criteria in an accessible way—without unnecessary jargon.
