We have an employee turning 70 this year, I heard that people don't need to contribute CPP after 70 years old. So for small business employer, do we still need to contribute CPP to employee that is over 70 years old?

Trying to help someone apply for CPP and every time we try to switch to add a telephone # it says the site doesn't work. I guess the my service system is down? We have tried some different times in the past month and nothing. So I assume they need to call in to apply for CPP now?
