That’s a good one. “ the guy asking us for a new mandate is the same guy who refused to share his last mandate.”

VOTE, VOTE!!!
@HubertVan @Sarah_Colero @ODSPoor @LouchElaine @PhoenixRizin09 It is so like Doug Ford to take care of his rich friends and rich insiders first rather than provide the very basics (like healthcare and disability supports) for the people of Ontario! Ontario... do your part .. VOTE VOTE .. #VoteFordOut

If you believe the cost of disability support should be based on need from cradle to grave, sign and share my petition to the Government of Canada. We are at 705 signatures. Let’s make that 7000.

Partnership leads to prosperity. I had an extensive discussion last week with Premier Akeeagok about how the federal government can work in partnership with the Government of Nunavut and Inuit to improve security and create prosperity for the people of Nunavut and all Canadians.

They want @fordnation to call them by their first name and be invited to the BBQ. Courage and spine is missing.
@RichardCityNews why did you not follow up on Doug Ford's blatant disinformation regarding ODSP? Why doesn't anyone want to hold Doug Ford to account for the current legislated destitute driving vulnerable disabled people toward MAID? Complicity is my only thought.

True stories. @fordnation
@RichardCityNews Nobody on ODSP is healthy. I'm on ODSP and I can't afford tv, my couch is broken too. I live in deep poverty asking strangers for help with food and bills. I barely have enough money to make rent. I used to work, went to college but unfortunately I became too sick to work.

Truth!!
You self righteous ignorant pos. Do you think I wouldn’t give my left arm to be able to be able to have more than 16 hours a week where I can be upright, our a moment free of excruciating pain, a week without medical intervention, a month without infusion treatment, a day without handfuls of medications, a day without mobility aids, to be able to shower without a bath seat or my husband helping me, and I don’t qualify for ODSP. I’m not disabled enough. So yeah my healthy young self would have no problem getting out there and getting a job, I had to make one for my self, so I can afford my medication, because I don’t have drug coverage. Because conservatives don’t believe in a pharmacies plan. So tell me again why you we should vote for you, you ableist jackass

Why don’t you raise ODSP? @fordnation I could give 2 sh$ts about the poor and disabled.
can't tell if OP is laterally ableist, ignorant, or both, bc this is something that blind/low vision (ntm most other people with physical disabilities) hear literally all the time

“99.948% are perfectly legitimate disabled persons in need of the program with roughly only 1 in 1900 cases being fraudulent” @fordnation Stick that in yer pipe and smoke it!!! Must hate it when facts get in the way of a perfectly good BS session. VOTE!!! for change
@Sarah_Colero @michieme315 0.052% or said another way, 99.948% are perfectly legitimate disabled persons in need of the program with roughly only 1 in 1900 cases being fraudulent. out of a case load of roughly 500,000 people that translates to about 263 individuals out of half a million.

impairment must directly result in a substantial restriction in their ability to work, care for themselves, or take part in community life. 3. The impairment, its duration, and restrictions have been verified by an approved health care professional. So, will you RAISE THE RATES?
