Please share widely!
(2/2) We echo the disappointment and concerns shared by disability communities following the announcements made in #Budget2024 on this issue. Countless #PWD will continue to fall through the cracks, and struggle to meet their most basic needs.
People with disabilities in Canada urgently need the financial support of the #CanadaDisabilityBenefit to make housing more affordable, access healthcare, and lift them out of poverty. (1/2)

Dignity by Design: The Canada Disability Benefit - CSA Group csagroup.org/article/public…
“The ‘government of compassion’ is giving Canadians living with disabilities $200 a month in a budget where there’s nearly 60 billion in new spending. And on top of that, not all disabled Canadians are eligible…I think that’s disgusting” (@Sid_Seixeiro). youtube.com/watch?v=tAdDpf…
Funding of the Canada #Disability Benefit in the 2024 federal budget fails to achieve its stated purpose - to reduce #poverty among people with disabilities, writes @NCHetherington, CEO of #DailyBreadTO: bit.ly/4dh9CAr @TorontoStar #FundTheBenefit #CDNPoli
@disabilityharpy We have noticed over the past...year or so, a growing number of sub-provincial govt councils making similar calls to the province as they grapple with visibly expanding homelessness /encampments, etc where none ever existed before. @AMOPolicy
Orillia City Council calls on province to 'at least double' #OW & #ODSP rates “This is legislated poverty, and we are calling on the provincial government to end legislated poverty.” #ONpoli orilliamatters.com/local-news/cou…
#Guelph @CamGuthrie @CouncillorCaton in light of the failure of the #CanadaDisabilityBenefit If the city wants fewer encampments? People need money.

"This budget doesn't begin to fulfill the government's promise to lift people with disabilities out of poverty - let alone the promise of Canada - fair shot at a prosperous future." -Len Baker, March of Dimes Canada President and CEO #CDBActionNow #WeAreThe27Percent
While tweets from parties in relation to the CDB are nice, we’d rather see Conservative, NDP, Green and Bloc leaders all stand in the House on the 29th and give their endorsement to government to fund the CDB to PBO maximum levels. You talk the talk, but will you walk the walk.
Canada’s underwhelming #disability benefit is a sign of a government devoid of vision and out of ideas, by @picardonhealth via @GlobeDebate @Disability_WP #poverty #inclusion theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…
Almost 94% of survey respondents agreed that the additional costs of disability should be factored into calculations on how much the #CanadaDisabilityBenefit should offer. Read more here: disabilitywithoutpoverty.ca/shape-the-cdb-… #CDBActionNow #DisabilityWithPossibility #WeAreThe27Percent
