Let me see here I am not into this shit nor do I understand it but being one of these people you speak of I am on Ontario Works I receive 650 a month my rent is 333 a month but that's cause I have two others living with me in a 2 bedroom apartment and just so we all scrap by every month we all chip in so yeah for those who lack social skills or unable to live like this should never be forced too due to their income, I sleep in my living room for crying out loud on a couch cause I am trying my best to still make our place feel like a normal apartment even though the living room is my bed room. so YES 1,000 a month for ow would be great and another maybe if there was more jobs out there and business would stop giving people who don't need the job. I have not worked in 12 years cause where ever I apply requires experience or I am over qualified for the job. Honestly it's not as easy as you are making it sound for those of us who are on OW cause it's not. I do not drive cause I would never be able to afford a car even if I did get my license. Not all people who are on OW are able bodied some of us are just lacking a doctor to fill out our paper work to receive ODSP cause we are physically limited due to health or mental health issues. oh but yet we enable drug users to continue using by giving them places to get clean crack pipes and needles but yet there are not enough medical professionals to help those who actually need it.
