People with disability are living in legislated sub poverty in Ontario. This is a violation of their human rights and pushing many to seek out Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD), these rates combined with inflation are pushing people with disabilities to homelessness or on the edge homelessness. Please join us at Queens Park November 1st @ 11:00 am to call on the Ontario Government, the Premier and Minister of Community and Social Services to take immediate action. Ensure everyone has a roof over their heads, food on the table and can live a life with dignity.

@ODCoalition 
Thank you so much for your response to this Crime against the Canadian people with Disabilities. To many of us are being pushed out onto the street Due quite simply Greedflation. ODSP is supposed to be a safety net for those unable to provide the basics of life and instead it is fast becoming a death sentence. It’s time for all levels of Government to step up and provide additional support.

Sorry if I am not understanding the location correctly….but…..do we meet on the lawn in front of the Provincial legislature (which means…that….we meet in/on the space that is not too far north of the Queen’s Park TTC subway station)…..or….do we meet on the green space that is on the north side of Wellesley Street West & between the two parts of Queen’s Park Circle?
