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.…

Can you really lift people out of poverty with an additional $6.66 a day? Canada’s disabled advocates are angry about the 2024 federal budget Canada Disability Benefit. ⁦Rachel Aiello⁩ ⁦CTV News⁩ ctvnews.ca/politics/6-66-…

I dream of a day when financial stability isn't an exclusive club but a universal right. Unconditional Basic Income isn't about giving handouts; it's about handing back dignity and the freedom to innovate. Let's all shift from survival mode to thrive mode together. It's time.

If you want to become rich, read these quotes:

Today's budget is a reminder that if you ask the capital class to contribute a dime more to society they're going to call you Stalin, so might as well take a dollar.

As angry as everyone is right now, remember that disability supports are first & foremost the responsibility of provincial governments. That being said, the Federal government should not have even taken this up if they weren't going to follow through with anything substantive

Every damn time. Why does anyone believe that Conservatives are fiscally responsible? Because they hurt vulnerable people, therefore spending cuts are more visible & seen as efficiencies?? They just take it & spend it on themselves, been proven over and over. I don't get it.

Oh, there's a surprise 🙄 not shovelling enough money to private interests I guess. That, and an utter lack of giving a shit about people in care #onpoli

Beyond disappointing. If clawbacks are allowed, it's hardly worth the paper it's printed on. I wonder if this is the holdup, figuring out how to get it to people without provincial malfeasance.

I thought we knew this a long time ago #onpoli there go those Conservatives again, being 'fiscally responsible' and all 🙄

Cry me a river.

The Ford government has abandoned the Canada Health Act.

Whether it’s subscription fees for primary care, pricy pap smears, costly cataract lenses, or temporary staffing agencies, Doug Ford and Sylvia Jones favour those praying to the almighty dollar.

Every single one of us should be in the business of planting trees whose shade we know we will never enjoy ourselves. That shade is for our kids' kids. So to me it is profoundly selfish to suggest anyone doesn't deserve having it easier than we had it because ThEy DiDn'T eArN iT.

I pay what I owe.

Tomorrow I will wire transfer to the IRS

$288,000,000.00

This country has done so much for me, I’m proud to pay my taxes every single year.

Tag a former president that you know doesn’t

I'm in.

Reminder that 26 seniors were murdered by neglect and no one was held accountable. If it happened in a daycare, or even an animal shelter, people would be behind bars already. These were human beings, just as deserving of care and dignity as the rest of us.

Poilievre would charge it back to the taxpayers and convince them it was worth it, cause common sense or powerful pay cheques or something...
