When a federal budget speaks of “generational fairness” it should not exclude the urgent needs of hundreds of thousands of low-income people with disabilities in their teens or in their twenties, thirties, forties, fifties or sixties.

How do you feel about the Canada Disability Benefit? The announcement has garnered a lot of reaction since the federal budget was released last week. Michael Prince from the University of Victoria weighs in with his thoughts on NOW with Dave Brown. @princepolity
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.
"When you look at the details and say "what, $200 a month? And not starting until July 2025 with further conditions for eligibility? We called for an end to legislated poverty for people with disabilities. That's no in here." Elizabeth May, Green Party Co-Leader #CDBActionNow
WOW. Insulting and out of touch. Listen to this ⬇️👂
2000$ like I intended this to be when I brought it to my mp Attention.
Canadians Please Sign #CanadaDisabilityBenefit
Canadians Please Sign #CanadaDisabilityBenefit
$200/month is not enough. $1000 would be better, but still leaves many #pwd below the poverty line. We support this petition, but would suggest that $1000 be a minimum. Sign the petition here: leadnow.ca/CDB-1000/
ICYMI: Janet from our ON team with Rosemary Barton on the Canada Disability Benefit being a meagre amount that will not lift anyone out of poverty. #EndDisabilityBenefit #WeAreThe27Percent youtu.be/65LOetp3og0?fe… youtu.be/65LOetp3og0?fe…
Please strongly consider signing this. The new proposed DTB is a farce.
BREAKING 👇 The Liberal Minister for Persons with Disabilities won't say that Canadians living with disabilities are facing a cost of living crisis.
SALCO is proud to have endorsed this letter by @ISAC_Ontario with hopes that we can still fix the #CanadaDisabilityBenefit

Friends, on May Day we fight for all Disabled Workers and for the liberation of everyone! Happy International Workers Day and solidarity from us here at DJNO.
Countless people with disabilities and organizations that serve them have come forward to share that the government’s proposal for the Canada Disability Benefit contains nothing that they have been advocating for. #cdnpoli #cdb #dtc #pwd #LastStand
When a federal budget speaks of “generational fairness” it should not exclude the urgent needs of hundreds of thousands of low-income people with disabilities in their teens or in their twenties, thirties, forties, fifties or sixties.
$200/month is not enough. $1000 would be better, but still leaves many #pwd below the poverty line. We support this petition, but would suggest that $1000 be a minimum. Sign the petition here: leadnow.ca/CDB-1000/

We should treat drug use as a health issue. Decrim does just that by removing barriers between a person struggling with substance use and the treatment they need. We have spent decades fighting a failed war on drugs. If anything is wacko, it's doubling down on failed policies.
This part->“There is no way for Owen Sound as a small municipality to address the root causes of poverty here, and there is also no way for the local non-profits and the social service sector to meet those needs. We need a larger-scale response"
