Just to state it clearly, I am not affiliated with any organizations. I do not make a cent in my advocacy. My podcast is commercial free and not monetized. The only income I get is
#mutualaid
. Everything else I do is to make
#Canada
a better place for people with
#disabilities
.

The only way to travel is safely. I was the only one wearing a
#mask
on the Go train. I'm on a trip to visit my Toronto friend who was born with collapsed lung, COPD and severe diabetes and he lives in terror of
#COVID
and my roommate is
#immunocompromised
. I wear masks for them.

'It could happen to you': Hamilton man's message about homelessness; Christopher McKittrick never imagined winding up in a tent — but he did:

I will NOT support the
@liberal_party
in the next election unless the
#CanadianDisabilityBenefit
is taken seriously and budgeted/legislated and rolling out, our minister is a joke and we have no faith after waiting almost a decade.
Four advocates in our community have died
I will NOT support the
@liberal_party
nor
@NDP
in the next Federal Election - unless the CDB is in my account BEFORE THE WRIT IS DROPPED.
I WILL spend my vote on someone else.
I WILL NOT waste my vote.
No spoiled votes here.
EVERYONE VOTE.

I fought through it and did another interview, watch for me on CBC tonight standing up for

and

issues like food inflation costs, housing crisis and
#MAiD

What the
@liberal_party
is feeling today is just a fraction of the fear, disappointment and let down that hundreds of thousands of disabled Canadians felt when the lackluster failure of the
#CanadaDisabilityBenefit
was rolled out.

My biggest problem with the
#Trudeau
government is the years of inaction. In art, you must respect negative space and there is a lot to mention not being addressed...
Not taking housing seriously until poll numbers crashed
Ignoring the 8 million Canadians by stalling the CDB

1. One of the greatest battles being disabled and in legislated poverty for years is staying human. Mike Harris started loudly treating us like animals with the welfare diet in 1996, and since the rhetoric has been shameful and demonizing.
