Thread by @uncrpdhelp

I am listening to the debate about Bill c22 . I dont hear the words that disabled people have rights. I dont hear United Nations CRPD rights or even Human Rights Commission rights .
But I do hear what I have been saying all along that bill c22 is empty. That there is a plan to

Study it for 3 years. I dont feel any of them recognize the right to live without the discrimination caused by legislated poverty. And I hear $2000 batted about which spied to the able bodied 2 years ago b4 inflation. O don't hear anyone really taking it seriously. There

Is no one talking about unessasary deaths.
None of them " get it".
Not who I am, that help was needed now and 2 years ago. And @cqualtro mentioning the Covid 19 Disabiliyy group she again did not mention she ignored their recommendations. And I hear how some are looking at

The condition of the govt coffers the imitation being can we afford it now , do we want to afford it. If there is recession will we b last in line as always for aid. So far this has been what I have feared an empty bill with talk but no action or money.

The debate has got so off track its just bickering and yelling.
@CQualtro opened this door by presenting such a empty bill.
Feels like a empty gesture creating this bill when it was obvious it was a unformed bill.

So off to committee it goes? Till when?

Like what the h does pwd Cdb have 2 do with nitrogen or the arrive app? Did they ask this when Cerb was born? Or are they using us 2 air all their petty pet peeves! Did Cerb recipients need to worry whether they were affordable?
Even this debate was not done in a equality manner

Bonita zarrillo at least finally was someone who said we Rights & talked about the commitment Canada made to United Nation signing the crpd
I think she is starting 2 "get it" . But i heard an awful lot of boring repeating of the same issues which all go back 2 its a blank bill!

Maid was eventually mentioned but I did not hear that they no ppl are dying every day from dehydration, hunger, heat stroke, covid, suicide, shorter life expectancy due to poverty ,triage polkicys, hypothermia etc etc.
No one put it all together to make this urgent

Listen to the tone of their voices now. They are talking about working ppl and their voices are now loud, indignant and demanding. Wow what a change.

Now they r talking about employed people having 2 use a foodbAnk 4 the 1st time. Also notice how the seats filled up at 2pm when debate on cdb ended. Then they all pour in because stuff that affect middle-class is being discussed.
Most obvious act of ableism to just 2not show up

They r repeatdy mentioning a friend or family member is a pwd . Sounds like the old : i know a " fill in the blank" so therefore I am not a bigot or ableist or racist. Talking about how parents kids will benefit. Do they expect it will take till these kids grow up?

There is no help coming from this bill anytime in the near future.
I think it will b years b4 this is created.
We r fd.

Arnold Vinson he keeps saying
"Those people"
Anecdotes r horrible making it sound like its a big favor to give a pwd a job , how familys are impacted by the pwd.
Well I sure feel isolated & guilty for being a burden ....NOT.
Glad he's not my mp condolences to pwd in his riding

Omg he thinks Aish is suffient. That if govt gives us cash it will drive inflation up!
Cerb was created within 5 weeks start of pandemic., passed house and senate in 1 day but they did not say this stuff. They said its emergency will get it done today.
What does pipelines have

Have to do with pwd.
I think they are taking advantage of our time in the house to bring up grudges, bs and take digs at each other.
