- Following the reveal of the 2024 Federal Budget, Mike Morrice rises in the house to amplify the disappointment of the disability community and push the federal government for a barrier-free Canada Disability Benefit that will truly lift recipients out of poverty.
Recorded April 17, 2024
It doesn’t meet the needs of people w disabilities.
It wasn’t Intended to
It was Done to mislead the General Population that thinks All Disabled People are Able to get the Disability Tax Credit
I THOUGHT THIS BENEFIT WAS AUTOMATICALLY GOING TO THOSE WHO ALL READY HAVE DISABILITY BENEFITS ,,WITHOUT THE NEED TO APPLY FOR THE DISABILITY TAX CREDIT TOTALLY DISAPPOINTED ,,
We have Fought for Inclusion for All People on Provincial Disability
A freaking another year to wait? What a joke ! We have bills and rent and food to pay for now !
" government not serious about helping disabled people in Canada and is unjust and shameful in Canada 🇨🇦😑 and will be voting Green 💚
I like Green too but they will never win
Up to $200 a month and you need the DTC to boot. Kicked to the curb, yet again.
Exactly, look like you are doing something - but make sure as few people get any of those taxpayer dollars they 'work' so hard to get for themselves and the wealthy - f the libs.
Exactly 👍
Exclusion not Inclusion
Thank you, Mike Morrice, for speaking for people on disabilities. most don't get dtc like myself. Been crying non stop since the budget release, depression is at its all time low since
Sorry to hear that, this Fight has been a Rollercoaster I’m Feeling Defeated Myself ❤ DWP had a Webinar and it was entitled Disability With Possibly!! Sad 😢
Thank you Mike for your efforts. What a horrible day, Budget Day, was. I truly thought I was going to be recognized as a real person.
This is nothing but tokenism and ableism and has done extreme damage. They don't even realize the damage they have done.
Just a suggestion, look up "social murder." I think it will be enlightening..
This is a Smoke and Mirror Benefit for Anyone that doesn’t Know that the Majority of Disabled People don’t get a Disability Tax Credit
They don't care, actually.
my ex mpp at a labour debate said that ppl on disability just needed some retraining, and they were sitting around doing nothing all day. cons always disregard disabilities as laziness.
to be on disability you have to become poor those that worked hard their whole lives are thrusted into govt sanctioned poverty.
housing they are slow to do, and of course lacks lower income and barrier free housing.
it was harris that cut assistance rates which still are below the poverty line and it threw a lot of ppl into the streets. only vote Green now.
$200 will not be enough, what a kick in the gut
$200 for Who ? It’s Not for people on Disability
@@emersonmcnamara517 yah it is
THANK YOU GREEN PARTY💚
After reading about the benefit announcement, I spent several hours talking to a suicide hotline. It crushed me. Now I am composing an email berating all involved for their utter failure to meet their obligation as legislators.
Stay Strong
Unfortunately they don't give a shit.
Absolutely bullsh!t!! I don't believe a word that women said.
That comment about her 5 year old nephew was particularly egregious. There are many, many people who were born very healthy, but later become disabled. Depending on private disability insurance is not enough. A lot of times, even when people have paid 100% of the premium for their disability insurance, the insurance company weasles out of its obligations one way or another. We need to look at CPP-D. We need to raise the pay out for sure. Who can live on about $1,000 a month, if you private company won't give you both your Extended Health Benefits and your disability insurance pay out? You are forced into taking a early retirement package rather than continuing to get your private insurance plan honoured until you are 65. I guess I should be thankful that the CPP premium was paid until my husband reached 65 when he was on CPP-D. I'm sick of the government, private employers and provincial governments and health units kicking disabled people to the curb!
@@dinkster1729And if you started collecting CPP before you are 65 to compensate your lost income while you are working your company long or short term won't cover you.
Thanks again, Mike. I don't know what we would do without you continuing to fight for us! Again, the Libs dance around the questions. My quote.... "A $200. slap in the face!"
$200 Bucks we Won’t Get!!!
$200 is a joke
$200 we won’t be able to Get, unless you have the Disability tax credit
Its worse than I thought they need to be sued
Right … a child gets $700 to these non working families . Why only kids in Canada getting money all the time it doesn’t goes to kids it’s there non working mothers . And disability people have to fight for funds to maintains there living lives come on these people need help .
Not kids sorry .
What an absolute insult and truly EVIL EVIL EVIL
Sick of her lies she just got a raise she didn't have to wait.
Clawbacks for $200 are these scumbags for real their lattes for a week are probably $200 they are insane
The dangling carrot still waving in the odious wind. 2025 is the date for reelection for the Lieberals....this insulting word salad is merely a stall tactic.
I’m so mad 😡
Get this my daughter has had over 100 surgeries and her husband who is her care giver with no pay is told to go out and get a job. Where is the justice for disabled people.
I've been my son's caregiver for 30 years. Thank goodness my husband worked full time because it put immense pressure on me to do everything. The gov't needs to come up with a caregiving strategy as well.
Thank-you Mr. Morrice for your tireless advocacy for people with disabilities. As a disabled person I was very underwhelmed by the announcement of the CDB. If the Liberals really care about helping those with disabilities they need to significantly increase the benefit and provide it in a timely way, both of which they have fallen very short on doing.
Over 21 million on consultants into this... So who are they?? But how much do our advocates get paid? That was a waste of money for so little people it will affect!!! Since 90 percent of us dont qualify!!! Yep now we are deviding the disabled community and discriminating between us!!
It's a joke. As a person with a disability I won't even get this because I'm married. It's discrimination! !!
It is absolutely discrimination. I hate that disabled people are punished if they get married or claim common law. My partner and I won't claim common law or he would lose everything. I.work - but I do NOT support him financially. No way could I afford to replace his PWD payments - nor should I have to. The whole thing is disgusting and shameful. And they are really making g disabled people far more vulnerable to a partner and financial abuse.
I’m Sad to Say I was apart of the Survey done and this was not the way it was supposed to happen I’m Broken by this Failure and trying to get through my Disappointment and Move On from this it seems like the Ball has been kicked Too Far Down the Road for Me !
and I can’t get it 😐
All MP's need to vote nonconfidence for this budget!
This does nothing to strengthen the social security of Canadians. What a crock of nonsense. Or as my late Grandmother used to say put it behind the barn
Due to my circumstance, i have been on long term disability for 35 yesrs now. I have no reportable income to use the tax benefits. I have never been able or have received any disability credits. Why? Don't i count? Or is it only those people that go through a government agency to get their money?
The Canadian Disability Tax Credit is Not for Disabled People it was designed for Parents , Caretakers and Supporters of a person’s with Disability’s to Claim
Well said, Mike. Brent Frain & I look forward to chatting with you a bit later today on PWD Allies podcast @ 3:30pm est.
As a disabled person, I am pleading to get this program in place.
Smoke and Mirrors , We gave them money Canada 🇨🇦 We are Doing Everything to get it Right Canada 🇨🇦 We Fought For You Against 🗳 Everyone 🇨🇦 to Get This to You 🇨🇦
43 years work, single, $830.00 amouth, that is it, no WCB, NO PROVINCIAL HELP AND NO PRIVATE WORK INSURANSCE, SO I HAVE ANOTHER YEAR WITH 830.00 A MONTH, ONCE IN A LIFETIME BENEFIT,DISABLED CHILDREN GET MORE THAN ME,
Thank you for your advocacy. I am the parent of an adult child with moderate to severe disabilities. Thinking about his future is so bloody depressing. There's no funding, no housing and no homecare. I work night and day as his caregiver. What will happen if I die? I can't even plan into the future because our Ontario gov't is the gatekeeper for extremely limited housing. I was hoping that the CDB would be enough to perhaps band together with other parents and share resources to ensure his future care. But here we are, $200/mo. For someone with my son's needs, a f/t worker would be over $4000/wk. I feel sick about this budget ☹
I get 744$
its like they need to build a ramp so disabled people can get from the bottom floor of poverty.. they built the first foot of the ramp.. they still have another 100 feet to go
The rent is so expensive almost all the money we have to give it just for the rent
So basically dont answer the questions and talk about what they have done, not what they need to do.
" I have a friend with a disabitlity..." eyeroll
What i got out of all this mess also is the disability tax credit is not the only big problem along with the 200$ amount...They are tying it to household income...So if your married and or common law and the partner works maybe older kids living home who are working and helping you with rent or food that may end up getting you nothing....
Of course. The same way they already discriminate against the disabled and take away their cheque if they get married or claim common law. Very sad.
I did some research, and quickly found out that the disability tax credit is only given to those who are working. I haven’t seen that mentioned by anyone reporting in, or talking about this topic. They are only giving money to those disabled people who can work and only 200$ extra dollars a month!
You don't have to be working to apply for disability tax credit.
Politicians care about two things, donations and votes. These statements have been used before. We spent more money on this issue than the last government. Give me a spread sheet. Show me we’re that money went. Show me how it benefited people w disabilities. Also, the term regarding regulation, we got to get it right, we’ll, give me a timeline. How long is this gonna take. Then there is the we know we have more work to do. Yes, love this line. What are you going to do and give me a timeline on how long it will take. All just political speak.
Thank you Mike for advocating for people with disabilities. The Liberals have done so much for people with disabilities, like forgetting about them during the pandemic, or that time the Liberals gave a one time payment of $600 because they were called out for forgetting about people with disabilities during the pandemic. This program seems like it was a budget afterthought, and they put it in at the very last minute.
Yes and all the access to healthcare and other red that was denied everyone during the pandemic also including PWD. Now they wonder why there are more mental health concerns too? Their only recommendation is vaccines and antidepressants SMH.
Unfortunately if the Liberals are bad, the Cons would be even worse. No party with a hope of actually being in power seems to want to address the disabled in a meaningful way (let's face it, the Greens will never actually be in power).
No cash is a barrier!!
This was the comment from the March of dimes. Notice the numbers.... "With a proposed maximum benefit of only $200 per month - just $6.66 per day - the funding envelope won’t raise the income of any person receiving disability income support in any jurisdiction to or above the poverty line."
Enough said
Poor Mike, the only one left fighting for us. Everyone else has abandoned us after the $ 200 per month for less than 40 % of disabled annoucement. Even the NDP approved the budget because they now know also that even Liberals will never give us enough money to survive as person's with disabilities. Thanks Mike..
How much was sent overseas to support a war or an ideology over the needs of all Canadians?
As long as the gov thinks all disabled ppl can and should be working full time, ie dougie ford, and the general public are resentful that there are even disabled ppl in our country, nothings going to change.
Wish he lived in constant pain and had a broken back and no limbs!! No he gets to eat steak or prime rib while rest of us stuck on crackers!! He had always hated the disabled and poor...just like all the other conservative... Mulroney,Harris and Harper!!! Never vote for a con... All they care about is rich developer friends...and Ford proves that!!!
ELECTIONS PLZ,
The only other party that has a chance of getting elected are the cons. Believe me, the cons would be worse.
And which party do you think.will give a shit about funding for the disabled? Spoiler alert: they don't.
General public may feel sad pretend they care...then say not in my back yard!!! Hate hypocrites!
Make it law no claw backs...dont give a choice!!! Just like child tax
Parlimentary secretary doesnt want to answer questions directly. This liberal government does not care about persons with disabilities. What has the federal government done in the past 8 years because I cant think of one thing. 200 dollars a month is almost laughable but its actually more devastating. I like Mike Morice because he actually fights for us. I believe him when he is talking and he seems genuine. This is someone that I would be interested in electing for Prime Minister in the future. The green party just might have my vote this tine around. Trudeau sbsolutely does not have it.
Unfortunately it will not be.any different under any other government. Do you think the other parties care more? The Conservatives?
@debbielockhart7762 Morrice > Trudeau. End of story.
Hi, I really don’t know where exactly that they think we will be out of poverty with $200 dollars a month increase. When we don’t even have enough to pay for rent right now with $1100 hundred or so. I would like to demand answers of what should I do , I am not the only person with this issue?? Please and thanks you
glad for all you do.
cons don't care nor understand what ppl with disabilities go through. odsp is below the poverty line as you know. its a lack luster "safety net".
our mpp stated ppl on disability were "sitting around all day doing nothing, and just needed some retraining" to be able to work.
If you can't work you are worthless to them.
what a joke - $200.00/month (oh, excuse me - UP TO $200/month). By July 2025, that $200 will probably buy a disabled person a bag of oranges. How out of touch the Liberal government is with reality. Provincial disability benefits already claw back if a person gets CPP. I live in Alberta, if I could work, I would. Provincial benefits let you make $1000 before clawing back half, unless it's a CPP Disability Benefit, then it's dollar for dollar and no $1000 break. A disabled person cannot live with dignity in Canada right now at all. It's very sad and the Government should be ashamed at letting it's disabled citizens and seniors live in poverty with no dignity or pride. All we hear are more and more excuses on why this disability benefit is postponed, way below anything that's going to help and now they have to wait another year. What a crock.
I think the government is not very competent
@@MrWallace484Maybe so, but don't kid yourself. They know exactly what this is - a shit sandwich.
Tired of the get it right slogan...the only thing they want right is saving money on our backs, and hope we die!!! Wtf did i bother working all those years to loose everything???
Where have they invested? to Whom? They invested in themselves and the people around them
You didn’t make it a Reality it was Fought For
I had to pause when she started talking. Lies.
I call it the toilet paper tax credit, by the time we get it, it will be how much toilet paper will increase..made me actually nauseous when i heard this...definitely not voting liberal or conservative...grrrrrrrr
