  1. Someone has to make hard decisions. It really all boils down to that. We can't keep borrowing money. So far, the liberals have shown themselves capable only of spending more money. The NDP of course, are even worse. I also don't like Hudak, but someone has to cut back, and yes, cutting back means hurting some people. Unfortunately, the Liberal government has never been able to distinguish between 'want' and 'need'.

    Unfortunately the Liberals and PCs want to hurt the poor. That someone who gets hurt are the poor and disabled in this province. They both are planning to cut back on what the disabled poor get per month in disability allowance. They want to do this so more money can flow upward to the richest people.

    The richest people would like nothing more than to have the disabled poor people go away and die so they wouldn't have to pay them anymore monthly benefits. Its a terrible situation.

  2. If the government provided more money to people on social assistance and disability there wouldn't be any need for a food bank to be used regularly every month like it is now. People have to use it month after month as a regular part of their food shopping.

    Its sad that in a country like Canada where corporations can get billions of dollars every year and we can send billions in foreign aid that we cannot take care of our own poor and disabled people properly. Even if they gave a food voucher/card worth $100 would be a huge help but they don't. Yet they can waste billions on ORNGE, E-health, closing gas plants. It's disgusting.

  3. Yet we have people in Canada on social assistance who are starving and cannot eat properly. We need to sort that out first before helping anyone else out. Single adults on welfare are given $606 to pay rent, buy food, pay bills etc. This is no where near enough money to do this. People on disability have it a little better but not by much. It's disgusting that we cannot give our poor a livable allowance.
