I'm very frustrated @JustinTrudeau & @fordnation put forth a negative image for people with #Disabilities. You make it sound as though people who are disabled need to #Rely on #Charities for #NecessitiesOfLife & #RidestoMedicalAppointments. Currently we do rely on #Foodbanks 1/3

Extended by #ConvenienceUsers driving up processing time, product price, extra trips/taxi fares, etc. If $2000 is a minimum amount needed to live in #Canada, #TopUp #Disability & #SocialServices #LevelTheField #UniversalBasicIncomeNow I started this thread for different point
