(1/2)❗SIGN THE PETITION: Help end clawbacks to the Canada Child Benefit (CCB)! The CCB is Canada’s signature poverty reduction program, yet nearly 800k families will have these payments reduced due to having received pandemic benefits. ✅Add your name: petitions.ourcommons.ca/en/Petition/De…
Less than 2 days left to sign! Take action to end punitive CERB repayments + clawbacks to child benefits #CERBAmnesty #EndPoverty petitions.ourcommons.ca/en/Petition/De…

This year, CPJ has accomplished a lot with relatively few resources✅. From successfully advocating to end immigration detention in four provinces, to influencing policy debates through our events and publications. Yet, with your support, we can achieve much more. 1/5
“Poverty is one of the most destructive and constraining accessibility barriers. Disability does not cause poverty; it’s how society treats disability that causes poverty.” - @juttatrevira #EndDisabilityPoverty @Disability_WP
Happy New Year from CWP! Our 2021-2022 AGM is being this month and is open to all our supporters Join us January 20th @ 3PM ET Register here: us02web.zoom.us/meeting/regist…
NEW RELEASE 🔥 2022 Poverty Progress Profiles📈 Snapshot of the cost of living, wages and social assistance rates, price inflation, & all new inflation benefits for every province & territory in 2022! cwp-csp.ca/wp-content/upl…
We have a long way to go before the right to housing is realized for us. That's why we're standing with the @R2HNetwork's call on the fed govt to revise the National Housing Strategy & uphold their own #Right2Housing legislation! Join us: housingrights.ca/take-action/re…
Homelessness is growing everywhere. A reminder: homeless ppl are rights holders, their encampments are rights claims + their supporters are human rights defenders. As such - human rights law applies wrt all related laws, policies, procedures and resource allocation.
Today, the Intl Day for the Eradication of Poverty, the All-Party Anti-Poverty Caucus heard from Hon. Hugh Segal, members of DignityforAll & were joined by Welsh officials involved in the creation of a basic income for youth leaving the care of child welfare authorities in Wales.
3/3 Thank you/Nakurmiik/Qujannamiik, @CWP_CSP and #ChewOnThis2022 for giving Pauktuutit the opportunity to share how Inuit communities are impacted by food insecurity in Canada. L-R: Martha Flaherty, Pauktuutit Board member; Emilly Renaud, Canada Without Poverty
Oh Canada! How is it possible that we are a top 10 performing economy globally + yet people have to live in tents. This is Halifax but could be almost anywhere x the country. All orders of govt are accountable to human rights commitments made. Cities can't do this alone.
Food Security looks like: Having the proper dietary sources. #IDEP2022 #ChewOnThis
Food is a human need & should be treated as a human right! We proudly signed an open letter calling on Canada to ensure food security for all, in connection w/ the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty earlier this week. Thanks @CWP_CSP for your leadership. #ChewOnThis
