How many Employers result in Permenant Job Layoffs because they can't commit to hours...
A #BasicIncome is also a means to protect these workers from loosing Weeks to Months of Income before they qualify for benefits. It's FASTER than EI. It's FASTER than Welfare.

How many mothers need to work 2 or 3 jobs just to pay the rent and bills? Sacrificing #FamilyQualityTime is not helping our society increase benefits of life by not having enough time for family outings, and experiences that can benefit creativity in the workplace.
THE BASIC INCOME THREAD:
I bet the government never thought about these when debating about Basic Income... what if until June 2021 #UBI had happened:

Most families would be able to stay afloat without the cost of borrowing, and by immediate stability it relieved the stress. Domestic Violence can be directly related to Financial Insecurity which increases the risk of increased Health Care costs and Justice system implications
Most families that have jobs if they did qualify for #BasicIncome probably wouldn't qualify in year 2. Especially if it was taxable income. However, the investment in the individual in one year can be enough to secure employment or higher education.
IMPORTANT SURVEY ALERT. There is big trouble for Canada's rent relief program. In our survey, only 19% say their landlord is likely to sign up for it. The provinces need to declare a moratorium on commercial evictions to save #CECRA. #SaveSmallBusiness
This landlord response is a tragedy, since small businesses are saying the rent subsidy is BY FAR the most important program that has been rolled out to date. 67% said #CECRA was most important, vs. 24% for the #CEBA loan and only 9% for the #CEWS wage subsidy.
A #CECRA rent subsidy that work would literally save our local communities. 54% of small business owners say it would save them from permanent closure. 43% say it would make a big difference. Only 3% (!) say they sure to survive either way.
