We should all push this week on Kamal Khera, she is the weak point in the armor. She regurgitates talking points, produces a #CanadaDisabilityBenefit that meets none of our requirements and is likely to be clawed back, not to mention the #DTC barrier and geared to household
Dear Justin Trudeau (Justin Trudeau),
It has been 1327 full days since you promised the #CanadaDisabilityBenefit to #Disabled #Canadians in poverty.
A $200 Monthly Benefit shows MP Khera's unfit for this post #FireKamalKhera #FixTheCDB

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)
Dr. Gary Bloch β After years of consultation, the govt is offering a #CanadaDisabilityBenefit that's inadequate, inaccessible & inequitable while asking overstretched health providers to serve as its gatekeepers.
This is unacceptable...

While we continue to advocate for increased funding for the #CanadaDisabilityBenefit , here is what we anticipate will happen over the next year before we see the first CDB payment.

Dear Jagmeet Singh,
Itβs your job to get Canadians with disabilities a much better deal.
The NDP were elected for moments like these.
The disability community needs representation that gets results and answers.
Donβt let the Liberals off the hook.
#CanadaDisabilityBenefit
8,000 out of 24 million taxpayers gave their input to the government about the #CanadaDisabilityBenefit . No wonder it only turned out to be 10% of what everyone hoped for, less than 10% of the turnout they thought would happen showed up.
You were consulted, Liberal Party . WE GAVE YOU THE STATS.
Living w/a disability costs ~28% more than a person who does not. Severe disability? 61% more.
$200 leaves us in poverty.
You've lost the votes of disabled Canadians & our families & friends. #CanadaDisabilityBenefit
- Disabled Canadians have been overlooked, stepped over and robbed of their rights and dignity in this country for the better part of 30 years now Pierre Poilievre Conservative Party.
This government promised to start to fix that in Sept 2020 with the #CanadaDisabilityBenefit 1/
Dear Pierre Poilievre, Melissa Lantsman, Tracy Gray & Mike Lake
474 days asking you to fight for ALL Canadians.
Specifically severely Disabled who can't work.
A $200 #CanadaDisabilityBenefit is a joke.
You've done good in HUMA.
Please raise this more in full HOC.
No new info from Kamal Khera at #HUMA . Despite pressing questions from Tracy Gray, Bonita Zarrillo βοΈ & other committee members, there are no answers from gov't about why the #CanadaDisabilityBenefit is so inadequately funded and #inaccessible to #pwd . We expect & demand more.
Bring #canadadisabilitybenefit into the light Justin Trudeau Jagmeet Singh
1. Reasonable amount.
2. July 2024 (or sooner).
3. You already know who's disabled, why tie it to a tax credit for working people?
4. Based on individuals, not household.
#pwd #cripthevote
Watching the Liberals promote #Budget2024 while knowing how much they let down Canadians with disabilities is heartbreaking. #CanadaDisabilityBenefit
An extra $2 a day from ODSP and maybe $6 a day from the #CanadaDisabilityBenefit , and people be like 'Why did that cost me $2 Billion?'... because you asked for a tax cut so many times, this makes up just a few years.
The Liberals have been warning Canadians about what could happen if Poilievre becomes PM...forever.
But it's not working.
Polls hardly budge. Voters are focused on what Trudeau has or hasn't done.
Advice: Inspire with results, not fear. Keep promises. #CanadaDisabilityBenefit
