@38StarlightD & I have to get from Victoria to Nanaimo Mon July21 to see her 94yr old grandma in hospital. Cowichan transit on strike for 5 months! fundraising $300 for travel &food. Any help is appreciated.🙏🚨 @mutualaidinca [email protected] paypal.me/weatherman27

This! Everyone should be enraged about the liberal Federal government promising a Canadian disability benefit that would help lift everyone out of poverty. #CDB We were lied to. All of us. The people getting the $200 are still in deep poverty too. This isn't a competition. 💔

Please help 🙏 😢 How do they expect someone who has nothing to pay this back? Ridiculous

I'm going to nap. Everything is making me feel sad today. 😔 I guess it's just stress, or whatever. Disabled people can't keep living so cruelly. We need real help. I feel like all I do is repost poverty or illness stuff and fundraise and it's hard to do that everyday 😪

@Dave_Eby what’s the hold up for not increasing disability support rates after 4 yrs?!?! We need help now! It doesn’t need to be in budget & can be done today! Thanks again for the worst summer ever along with no transit!!! Shame on you!!! #bcpoli

People with disabilities can't get around

I’m disabled living in Victoria & rely heavily on transit to visit family on Vancouver Island. Stranded since Feb 8 due to bus strike. @BCTransit contracts out to @TransdevCanada, subsidiary of a private company based in France managing Cowichan Transit. @gavinmcgarrigle #bcpoli

Renewed my phone plan for another year but I will likely lose phone service sometime between July 31 and August 31 due to not having a voLTE capable phone. 3G shutdown blues anticipated around July 31. #Canada There is no budget for a secondhand phone that is voLTE provisioned.

The @UN #CRPD has reported on how your government works for people with disabilities. MAID track 2 coercion is a glaring problem, paired with inadequate CDB funding leaves disabled Canadians in deep poverty. It's not a good look when the UN CRPD has called you out. @liberal_party

We live in #PWD hell. It's hell all the way through.

Mutual Aid request. I need help paying for my Symbicort. It costs 120 dollars every 2 months. I can't afford it. I need it to help me breath. It is not covered by pharma care in bc, only under very special circumstances that I do not qualify for. Any amount of money towards it…

BC housing suggest people also apply to housing providers directly not part of bc housing. Most of the providers are co-ops, they are not taking applications. #Pwd #BCpoverty

It's difficult for me to express how I'm feeling about my housing situation. I'm panicked, exhausted, fed up, and I just want everything to be over. I don't want to live in limbo anymore, there is an appointment for a viewing of our unit on Friday, this will be the 10th or 12th…
