YES! We need to #doubleODSP. AND we need to double Ontario Works rates, which are substantially lower. All this as we continue to work for #basicincome, a guaranteed liveable income floor for everyone. #raisetherates #onpoli

#LivingWageWeek in Ontario is going to big: new rates, new employers, and...new coverage map. Starts Nov 14th, stay tuned
The key to civilization is figuring out which old ideas are the ones we need to toss & which new ones we need to embrace. What appears utopian now will be common sense tomorrow. #BasicIncome is one of those new ideas. It's time to embrace life over human sacrifice.
When asked about UBI and why he prefers universality over means-testing, this is how Nobel Prize Winner Robert Solow explained his reasoning. #BasicIncome
Politics killed Ontario's basic income program, but it was getting great results. Couldn't we try it in Atlantic Canada? PAM FRAMPTON: Helping people help themselves | SaltWire saltwire.com/newfoundland-l…
Universal Basic Income is about so many things. It is about power and freedom, it is about deciding for ourselves, it is about family, relations, and so much more. #BasicIncome
Thank you so much to @morricemike for his inspiring words at the Ontario Basic Income Network AGM & his tireless advocacy for social & environmental justice! His closing words for the #basicincome movement: "it is so important to support each other & organize together !"
So pleased to see green MP @morricemike's support for a guaranteed liveable #basicincome - a message he heard from his neighbours, now constituents. mikemorrice.ca/blog/2020/9/10…
Looking forward to it! Thanks for all you do @BasicIncomeOnt! #CDBby23

Rent, groceries, bills, debt. The end of the month can be overwhelming for some – especially those who live alone. Food Bank Canada is calling on the federal government for #BasicIncome across the country+ to drastically reduce food insecurity.

A guaranteed liveable #basicincome could act as a permanent strike fund, allowing workers to walk away from poorly paid, dangerous jobs. No wonder @fordnation cancelled the Ontario Basic Income Pilot. #standwithCUPE vimeo.com/604386145
It's the time for the govt to have the courage to bring in a Guaranteed Livable Income now: Ottawa is flush with cash, short on political courage as recession looms #basicincome @KPateontheHill @basicincomecdn @BasicBc @votelau @Disability_WP @ubi_works nationalobserver.com/2022/11/04/opi…
I just voted against Bill 28, which takes away the Charter rights of the lowest paid education workers. Whose rights will Doug Ford come after next? #onpoli
MP @morricemike will be joining the OBIN AGM at 11:20 this morning to discuss the movement for a guaranteed livable #basicincome & work on the Canada Disability Benefit. #basicincome #Disability Join in here! us06web.zoom.us/meeting/regist…
Staying in my BI lane... Sheila Regehr, head of @basicincomecdn and retired civil servant who worked in welfare explained that there is NO way the Ford administration (after promising TWICE to not cancel) had time to assess the Ontario Pilot before canceling. #IStandWithCUPE
The Ontario Basic Income Network stands in solidarity with #CUPE & supports the rights of all workers to engage in collective bargaining.
The Ontario Basic Income Network AGM starts at 9:30! Hope you can join us! Special guest speakers will discuss the latest from the #BasicIncome movement in Canada. obin.ca/news
