Lisa MacLeod says Ontario's social assistance system needs a 100-day pause and review. So let's say that if she hasn't fixed it in 100 days, she should resign.
Last word before my return to summer social media hiatus. Decision to kill #BasicIncome pilot represents bad public policy & a broken promise to all Ontarians. But more importantly, it is an act of cruelty to citizens who courageously volunteered to be a part of it. #HamOnt
The #HamOnt poverty Industry plans on suing the Doug Ford government for cancelling the moribund "Basic Income Pilot Project", saving taxpayers $100 million. The clients recieving it will be bused to Queens Park to bitch and moan how their lives are suddenly ruined.
New Democrats agree with Minister MacLeod that poverty has been on the rise in Ontario, but we certainly don't agree with her prescription: an appalling cut to social assistance and scrapping the basic income pilot that is showing promise in lifting people out of poverty.#onpoli
A petition has been created to save Ontario’s #BasicIncome experiment. Please everyone share this far and wide, and for everyone living in Ontario, please sign it and tell your MPP to not play politics with the lives of 4,000 people!
