And all the subsidies given to the new battery plants in Windsor and St Thomas. Hard (at least for me) to make sense of it all. Can’t anyone build a business themselves without free government cash? And it’s unfair to companies that don’t receive government funds.

Ai; “Chinese electric vehicles (EVs) are heavily subsidized by the Chinese government, with over US$230.9 billion between 2009 and 2023..includes rebates, exemptions, infrastructure, grants, lowering production costs and fostering dominant, globally competitive, and rapidly expanding EV industry.

Permanent disability opportunity. Disability ♿️ is 24/7. No time off. Less than $2/ hour for pain, isolation, food and housing insecurity. Sound too good to be true? See why we need a publicly funded national disability insurance plan! End this nightmare for disabled. everycanadiancounts.com

As I see it. The so called “leader” of the USA is running the country just like he has his businesses - for personal gain. Exploit, reduce the value, and take over the competition. Capitalism at its finest. For him it’s just business. People and current contracts mean nothing.

Initially I was thinking that you should lead the NDP. Then I thought, you could start a new party and lead it. The amount of support you would get would be unprecedented. Please stay in politics Charlie, the country needs you now more than ever.

“Voters with disabilities wouldn’t have to face these new snow barriers if this election were held in the legislated voting day in June of 2026, or indeed in any month after the winter,” said David Lepofsky, Since disability and poverty support are in shambles, what better way to suppress their vote

Talk to everyone you know about the need to vote! So much can be done by simple word of mouth in our own circles. Imagine how great Ontario would be without Ford! Imagine having a premier that worked for us instead of his cronies!!

The Guaranteed Basic Income is amazing to end poverty. But we also need to address the enormous cost of disability. For that we need a national disability insurance plan, as suggested by us at Every Canadian Counts. Please sign and share our petition; www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

Agreed. There’s a big swing away from Conservatives in many ridings over the last few days. If this trend continues we can hope for a minority government. We need to vote strategically, even if that means pinching our nose for now. The Greens have the best platform with Basic income and ODSP

ODSP recipients struggling to keep pace with stretched housing costs in Windsor-Essex
For Kevin McShan, financial independence is something he strives for. But as an Ontario Disability Support Program (ODSP) recipient, it remains out of reach.

Absolutely true. Parents need to die and now it becomes a crisis to get support. It’s so messed up. The disability is not the individual’s fault. It shouldn’t be up to them, or family to pay for it. That cost should be borne by our society through a publicly funded national disability insurance plan

“If it were really THAT bad you would be getting help.” No. There’s NO help available for the lions share of chronic illness & disabilities Don’t punish us because you need you need to remain in denial about the frail nature of our bodies. About our crumbling healthcare systems. About disability.

When you’re chronically ill - your baseline is everything. You will protect it at all costs. Non disabled people can’t understand how much independence and autonomy means to us. Whatever small amount we have left - is priceless. That’s why we don’t take necessary risks. We know what’s at stake.
