I was on and off #ontarioworks for 8 yrs always remember wearing the same ratty winter coat, boots that were too tight & a pair of runners I couldn’t wear in rain or snow - when I received retroactive pay from #ODSP I was able to buy clothing & footwear. It’s been downhill since

The treatment of #PWD’s is a national disgrace, govts are literally nickel & diming all those on disability benefits the long awaited #CDB is only $200 per month. It is beyond acceptable that we as a nation allow this. My salvation was turning 65 but some can’t wait that long

After 8 years on #ODSP I officially became a senior and will receive more monetary benefits from #GIS #OAS #CPP It is a bittersweet feeling to know that I lived mostly in poverty since 2010 #OW Our system is beyond flawed, it kills and destroys lives. My sadness will never end😞

Excellent piece, by default being poor or a #PWD excludes an individual from being a meaningful person in society. As someone who has been entrenched in the #OW #ODSP welfare system for the past 10 years I am testament to how it destroys a soul. No one is coming to our rescue 😔

I finally applied for the #DTC in order to apply for the #CDB odd thing is that I’ll be turning 65 in November and if it all goes to plan I’ll be able to retroactively collect 6 months of the #CDB The final indignity of having to prove my disabilities once again. Life as a #PWD

Meanwhile @fordnation and Ontario MPP’s are getting a 35% increase in wages while those on #ODSP must be content with a paltry 2.8% or about $38 a month increase. It’s just appalling to live in a province where #PWD’s have been repeatedly abandoned. Help us all FFS !

Today I received my T5007 for #ODSP * Read it and weep * I'm one of the "lucky" one's as I share an apt. & have money for food, after that life is mostly abysmal. In December I transition to CPP & my income will rise but life as a #PWD has been a life wasted, makes me weep😔

The whole disability file under the @liberal_party has been a debacle and as prime minister @JustinTrudeau failed to advocate for #PWD’s time again: imagine, they helped everyone and their mother during the height of the pandemic and did absolutely nothing for us. Unforgivable!

BEWARE: FYI #PWD's No doubt it’s really gone wrong for @JustinTrudeau and the @liberal_party but if you’re a low income earner, disabled, or a pensioner you should be worried, very worried at what @PierrePoilievre and the @CPC_HQ have planned for you !

If you’re a #PWD like me who will be getting kicked off #ODSP at 65 ( at the end of the year ) it’s imperative to apply for GIS and OAS or you’re doomed. I’m so worried about the transition but no one bothers to reach out and help 😔 I can’t become homeless or I’ll die ☠️

#PWD’s in Ontario who lose their housing are in mortal danger and no-one gives a sh*t and many of those who have housing don’t have enough to eat @fordnation needs to get off his high horse and stop abandoning our most vulnerable citizens ! 😔 Sigh
Place the blame for homelessness where it belongs The effects of provincial inaction and antipathy are the root causes of our housing & #homelessness problems, and are within the control of the provincial govt to fix. #ONpoli #ODSP #OW thespec.com/opinion/columnis…

It will be interesting to see how this plays out, the Liberals proved their ineptness again by overlooking #PWD’s and pensioners ! How do these people live with themselves @JustinTrudeau @KamalKheraLib @liberal_party @JulieDzerowicz Thank you @theJagmeetSingh @NDP #Equality

We could use a little good news after what @JustinTrudeau and @liberal_party did to us this week, right @JulieDzerowicz and @KamalKheraLib 😠 Nasty nasty folks who mock #PWD’s by offering them #MAiD !

Our govts have abandoned the people when it comes to Covid-19, we are literally on our own - can’t find info on any protocols, hard to find tests and in some cases now there is a cost to getting them: have we learned nothing in all these years ? And I could go on about masking 😷

We have created a new petition to encourage @fordnation to step in and provide free rapid tests to Ontarians, since the federal government appears to have given up. Please sign and share today! #FreeTheRATs beyndp.ca/ontarians_deserve_…

I’ve never understood why #PWD’s who cannot work at all are just discarded and allowed to live our worst lives: can someone, anyone, explain to me why govts at all levels fail to contribute benefits to ease our deep poverty. And remember hope is not a plan but MAiD is !!! FFS 😔

I’m on #ODSP and my rent / hydro is 60% of my disability benefit - for now I am blessed to share a apt. with my brother otherwise I’d be living in a room, homeless, or dead 💀 Thankfully I can buy food but I live in constant stress because of govt sanctioned poverty. So hard 🙁

I can't stress this enough but Canada's most vulnerable citizens have been abandoned by all tiers of govt, this includes #PWD's, seniors, low income earners plus all those who ( Can ) fall through the cracks including the unemployed, homeless & those on social assistance. FFS

So so true @losinghopein I always say I feel like a prisoner on #ODSP &more so with #covid I share an apt so I am able to eat but I always feel like I’m about to fall off a cliff. I’m not sure how much more my soul can take, dying is always on my mind, I think of it as an escape
I wish I could afford groceries when I need them, pay bills when they are due, buy clothes when necessary, replace things that break, go places I choose. I'm not allowed. Not allowed dignity or independence. I'm a prisoner despite never committing a crime because I'm disabled.
