"It'll lift Disabled Canadians OUT of poverty" For 1299 days they said that. Sold it to #Cdnpoli public on that basis. To #CdnMedia & @UNHumanRights on that basis. #CanadaDisabilityBenefit: 2200 days of broken promises, media silence & death. @CTVNews @CBCNews @CityNewsTO.

2199 Days ago a poverty ENDING #CanadaDisabilityBenefit was promised to #Disabled #Canadians @MarkJCarney @FP_Champagne @shafqatalimp Instead $10DC, Dental, Pharma, Ukraine & Military prioritized over the lives & safety of our most vulnerable. $200 monthly hasn't done fuck all.

I call upon my fellow PWD, allies, caregivers & family to seek support during this provincial election campaign for POVERTY LEVEL FINANCIAL SUPPORT (equal & tied to the Official Poverty Level of Canada - MBM 2025 = $1950/mo) for ALL PWD in B.C., regardless of "shelter status".

We can organize now and wreck the "it's mild" narrative or we can let Covid wreck us. The Damage is cumulative, and Time Is Running Out! Right now is the time to get vocal, to organize, to run virtual campaigns, to attract media attention, to demand education, mitigation, and air filtration, and to demand help for those who have Long Covid and other Post Covid Conditions. gofund.me/f7437a4d9 I am going to keep working to raise awareness and help others, I need your help to do it, and if we raise enough I'll recruit a team, and promote the content of others. Thanks friends.

Maybe money can buy some people happiness. But one thing's for sure: basic income buys people time and freedom.

"Abandoning people to die on the streets is not compassion." Yet YOU DO SO TOO, @PierrePoilievre.. every single day that you refuse to engage the @liberal_party about their abandonment of Disabled Canadians and their BROKEN promises to "Lift them OUT of poverty".
Abandoning people to die on the streets is not compassion. Giving out deadly drugs is not compassion. And letting drug kingpins loose to profit off death is not compassion. Offering recovery, a home, and a drug-free life is compassion.

Housing crisis? Build housing. Homelessness? Build supportive housing. People struggling? Put services where they live. It really is incredible what government can accomplish when it stops blaming poor people and starts building for them.
We can't solve a housing crisis without building more housing. Today we broke ground on the Casanova Residence, which will soon be nearly 100 affordable and supportive homes with on-site services for New Yorkers. Every new home is a step toward a City that everyone can afford.

Let me break it down for everyone... It's far cheaper to house people than it is to leave them homeless on the street. We already pay for homelessness — we just choose the most expensive and least humane way to do it. Let that sink in.

Unpopular fact : keeping disability payments below the poverty line is straight up eugenics.

I can't tell you how frustrating it is that the disability community is ignored in almost every way and yet we're the only minority group you can join at any time. You can run ten miles a day and watch what you eat but disability is inevitable with age, accident, or illness.

Disabled Canadians that want to live feel abandoned by gov who are not providing fixed incomes to match current cost of living causing starvation, homelessness & mental illness. You care more about disabled people who want to kill themselves than disabled people who want to live
