The Liberal defence of the current Canada Disability Benefit is that it's better than nothing, a milestone nonetheless, will still make a difference, and the provinces also share responsibility. Agree or not, it remains very urgent that we fight for more. ctvnews.ca/politics/6-66-…
For adults with Down syndrome, how much does it cost to live? Will future caregivers be out of pocket? CDSS is extremely disappointed over the inadequate funding allocated to the Canada Disability Benefit in Budget 2024. The announced funding falls far short of what is necessary…
Dear Justin Trudeau (@JustinTrudeau), It has been 1302 full days since you promised the #CanadaDisabilityBenefit to #Disabled #Canadians in poverty, promising to lift them out of it. The hell is $200 dollars gonna do ? (@cafreeland @AnitaAnandMP @KamalKheraLib @R_Boissonnault)
#Budget2024 new Canada Disability Benefit offers $6 a day in income support for some people with disabilities some time in 2025.

Effective immediately, I have resigned from Minister @KamalKheraLib Disability Advisory Group. I am deeply disappointed in what #Budget2024 provided for the Canada Disability Benefit. Read my full letter here.

Rising food insecurity and cost of living means income supports for Canadians living with disabilities are needed now more than ever. You can help lift Canadians out of poverty by sending a letter to your MP today! fundthebenefit.ca
Dear Jagmeet (@theJagmeetSingh), In the last 867 days you've sent one tweet about Impoverished #Disabled Canadians. Twice you promised recommitment to the issue. NOW is the time. Do SOMETHING about the $200 monthly #CanadaDisabilityBenefit. It MUST NOT stay that low for so few.

This is a wake up call to the Liberals who think legislated poverty is acceptable for persons with disabilities. It’s not. 👇

Although the budget for the Canada Disability Benefit was disappointing, don’t give up on the CDB, we’re not. Regulations have yet to be written and there’s time to work to see funding change incorporated into the next fall economic statement and next federal budget. Keep going.

The Canada Disability Benefit is #pathetic & nothing more than LIP SERVICE! UP TO... $200/mo for only 40% of all Disabled Canadians does absolutely NOTHING to END government-imposed POVERTY of PWD in Canada! It doesn't even cover ONE MONTH of groceries for a SINGLE PERSON!
If you don't live in poverty and you're defending the Liberal budget announcement on the CDB, why are you like this? They could have saved us and chose not to. Sub-poverty is still sub-poverty, and the nightmare continues. No excuses.
From the budget 2024 "The government will continue working with persons with disabilities as well as health care and tax professionals to find ways to increase take-up, and lower the administrative burden, of obtaining a Disability Tax Credit certificate," @JustinTrudeau…
Imagine for a second will you, if 4 years ago Trudeau announced that the gvt was going to spend a massive $6B in CERB and dole out $200 to each Canadian who couldn’t go to work. $200/month to keep you afloat for up to 2 years! Can you imagine the riots that would have ensued
OK, let me understand. It’s like a 4 -year-old. Abled Canadians. Received 2000 for cerb in four weeks. DISABLED CANADIANS. Get 200 after 5 1/2 years. Ummm. How about this? #ResignKAMALKHERA Thank you for uniting us because we’re coming for your job #PWD
Government promises to #PwD are worthless until assistance rates move from murderous to non-murderous. Anything else is just noise.
I feel like I’m living in a different world from the rest of my peers. They’re getting married, starting families, buying starter homes, getting promoted…etc I’m still living in survival mode, really not much has changed for me in the last 20 years and it’s deeply depressing
Yeah, this We absolutely need to address how the government lied I DO NOT CARE that politicians lie all the time. That they fuck us over. Why? BECAUSE IT MUST CHANGE. And we, as citizens, are allowed to demand that of our gov't This was a slap in the face. Not just the amount
What's being forgotten is that the #CanadaDisabilityBenefit was promised in part to offset deaths by #MAiD the Govt. knew was happening due to legislated poverty. The Govt. has 100% confirmed that they know disabled people are dying and they're okay with it. $200/month is a joke.
Let's put this into perspective... @cafreeland - you spent MORE on your "budget shoes" than you allotted for a Disabled Canadian for ONE MONTH of financial support under the Canada Disability Benefit structure...! Did you get that? Does that reek of dis-connect or privilege...?
Planning for Accessibility: Proximity is More Important than Mobility | Planetizen Blogs planetizen.com/blogs/128363-p…
Disability community! I feel your brokenness. So let's strategize. The Canada Disability Benefit: 1) Is not enough to eradicate legislated poverty 2) Is not coming in time for people living without hope 3) Is too limited in terms of eligibility Here's why we're not done: 1/6
People outside the disability community and even within aren't able to fully grasp the scope of what has happened with the Canada disability benefit. The work of the advocacy, the time put in by countless individuals and organizations, putting their reputations at stakes. This…
Dear Justin Trudeau (@JustinTrudeau), It has been 1301 full days since you promised the #CanadaDisabilityBenefit to #Disabled #Canadians in poverty, promising to lift them out of it. The hell is $200 dollars gonna do ? (@cafreeland @AnitaAnandMP @KamalKheraLib @R_Boissonnault)
#PWD remember when we asked the @liberal_party not to put us through the anxiety, stress,and trauma of having to prove our disabilities yet again? Good times.
Turning off comments so the affected can't even counter misinfo is snaky politics. $200/month (in July 2025!) is a death sentence to the disabled people at risk of MAiD coercion from legislated poverty. They know this. This benefit was *supposed* to lift these ppl out of poverty.
#Budget2024 includes the Canada Disability Benefit as one of the largest line items at $6.1B which will provide support to individuals living with disabilities. We need to do more, and P/Ts need to step up to increase, and not claw back, their assistance programs! #cdnpoli
Puppy hugs his little brother who's having a nightmare..🐕🐾❤️
Poverty line- 2300/mth. Add 30% for Disability costs. Subtract prov benefit. 2300 + 690 - 1308(ont) = CDB of $1682. How hard was that? #PWD #ResignKamalKhera
