I can't believe the Crips for eSims for Gaza project, which started the end of last December, raised over 500k CAD! This week an IDF airstrike killed 2 children & several others in a refugee camp in Rafah. Don't look away or forget Donate chuffed.org/project/crips-…
This long thread with Minister Khera’s repeated non answers to basic questions on the #CDB by MPs, speaks volumes about the absence of any defence the govt has for failing disabled people with this budget’s CDB. Thanks for posting!👏🏽

HUMA: Kamal Khera vs. Canada — 2/6 April 29, 2024 Truncated series of her unbelievably irritating and infuriating, and outrageously offensive nonanswers to other MPs, most of which just reiterating the budget’s CDB announcement. “I think…” #CanadaDisabilityBenefit #Budget2024
With its ableist #CDB budget, the govt has deeply failed disabled people, its own poverty reduction strategy & obligations under #UNCRPD. It’s now on ALL parties to demand a barrier/free CDB that begins to lift ppl out of poverty. Our community demands it! #CdnPoli
Not to add gas to the flames of the Canada Disability Benefit, but the $200/month is the max amount people with the DTC will receive, the max. In reality, for many, they won’t see the $2,400 / annual level. The CDB has turned out to be more heartbreaking than ground-breaking.

Another theme from the misguided is that rich people should give to charities instead of funding government run social programs. It should not be up to the privileged to decide who gets Care and who doesn’t. This is colonial BS.

A belated and sincere THANK YOU to @kristynwongtam for meeting with @LivMendelsohn and I last week. We miss you at the City of Toronto! You are always so generous with your time and support. Grateful you continue to be a champion for disabled people. Hope to see you again soon!
Millions of people with disabilities in Canada allowed to live in deep poverty, are counting on #Budget2024 🇨🇦 funding of the #CanadaDisabilityBenefit! #SenCA #cdnpoli #BudgetTheBenefit now.

We just delivered a “fund evasion” ticket to Finance Minister @cafreeland It's time for MPs to stop evading their responsibility to fund the #TTC. Riders are asking federal MPs to chip in for new subway trains & speed up the Permanent Public Transit Fund. ttcriders.ca/fundevasion
Another theme from the misguided is that rich people should give to charities instead of funding government run social programs. It should not be up to the privileged to decide who gets Care and who doesn’t. This is colonial BS.
Disabled people are being targeted for government cuts to fund corporate welfare in the UK and Canada.
A lot to unpack in Sunak’s “welfare” speech but one headline is PIP will be reviewed. Sunak said it may be right to pay one-off costs for adaptations but stop ongoing payments. This would mark a major shift and break decades-old entitlement to help. theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
Journalist source request: Working on a story today about the #CanadaDisabilityBenefit. Would love to talk to #PWD in Canada or family members about what they wanted and what they got. (Bonus if you have stories about problems with the Disability Tax Credit.) My DMs are open.…
Today’s budget announcement of $200/ month for the Canada Disability Benefit makes clear yet again how the Feds feel about disabled people. CERB was $2000/month with no questions asked but for disabled people unable to work -$200?!! And you must have the DTC? Absolute disgrace.

NO Doctor, no ER open, paying for tests...this is why. The Provinces are stealing from us (in Ontario some of it is going on a spa)
$70 Billion in Health Transfers are NOT being spent on Healthcare by Provinces So where did that $70 Billion go? Please retweet & share #cdnpoli
No one wants to address the question as to why someone like me, Queen of the Noodle Arms, can successfully de-escalate crisis situations without any special equipment, defence training, or body armour. Perhaps it's because de-escalation looks like a friendly face, not a soldier.
