Following a presentation from Leah ProudLakota (she/her), our board has endorsed C-223, aiming to create a Framework for a Guaranteed Livable #BasicIncome . LUSU, representing nearly 10K students, joins others in calling for a #GLBI for all!

All they did on budget day was say
'max $200 a month mmmmm kay.'

#GLBI was $500 a month ON TOP of a #GuaranteedIncome

It is time to provide a real solution to poverty.

We support Bills C-223, An Act to develop a national framework for a guaranteed livable basic income, and S-233, the identical Senate bill.

We believe #GLBI will reduce gender inequalities in 🇨🇦.

#basicincome #LivableIncome4All

Perhaps the CDB could be the pilot for the GLBI.

Living in poverty drastically increases a person’s likelihood of experiencing gender-based violence including violence against #MMIWG2S . Call to Justice 4.5 explicitly calls for a #GLBI . It’s time for Canada to answer that call. #BillC223

I do support GLBI
That's why I've been voting Green since 2019

In my honest opinion:

We need an adequate disability support system before a GLBI.

With MAID's coercion exclusively targeting vulnerable disabled people, that's who needs to be prioritized in helping first and foremost. ASAP.

Then and only then can we expand to GLBI.

Why do I support #GLBI ? Because the alternative is people believing we need to decrease Employment Insurance premiums and that will keep it affordable.

Anyone else notice the premium rates?

Basic income is tested, proven, and ready to improve the lives and well-being of all people in Canada. #GLBI is an idea whose time has come! #BillC223

On Equality Day in Canada, we celebrate the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and are called to continue to fight for the values of dignity and equality, as enshrined in the Charter, to be upheld for all individuals in Canada. #BillC223 Support #GLBI !

Got another mass email from the NDP on their partisan GLBI motion.

The day after the abysmal Canada Disability Benefit budget was announced.

No wonder Singh couldn't say whether or not he was voting for the budget yesterday, he's still mentally stuck on his partisan motion.

Basic income is tested, proven, and ready to improve the lives and well-being of all people in Canada. #GLBI is an idea whose time has come. #BillC223

🥴 Disabled people were just pawns to move this ahead weren't we?

'CDB proposal isn't enough, we need a GLBI'

*Glazing over the people currently being coerced to use MAID with no adequate disability supports available*

Leah ProudLakota (she/her) Where is the outcry that #GLBI even in it's Smallest scenario, and oldest formula (since Ontario Pilot) was 2.5x larger for people with #Disabilities without the requirement of the #DTC and that's not including the base rate. Where is your outrage? I'm so mad.

Young people understand the need for #dentalcare #pharmacare #housing & a #GuaranteedLivableBasicIncome #GLBI . How can you raise a family without this help? #VoteNDP ndp.ca scroll to bottom right to read Policy Book.

Sn Erdoğan 'ın konuşmasın da gördüğüm; Söyleyecek sözü vereceği umudu dahi kalmamış iflas etmiş esnaf resmi gördüm. Bırakın yakamı artık der glbi.
.Ama Anayasa ve _Af yapmadan da bırakmak olmaz işte

Living in poverty is linked to higher rates of disease, mental health distress, addictions, disability, and a shorter lifespan. Poverty is a policy choice that hurts our health. A #GLBI will pull people out of poverty and take stress off our public health system. #BillC223

#GLBI is financial reassignment surgery for the government. 🤔🤦‍♂️🤣

If the NDP passes Budget 2024 with the $200/month CDB, they are telling the public 2 things:

1) NDP doesn't care about disabled lives

2) NDP is willing to keep using disabled people as pawns, actively keeping them starving/suffering so NDP more of a campaign on their GLBI

When people received CERB, they were more likely to spend locally. Most small businesses are self-funded, and the dwindling middle-class means less entrepreneurship.

A #GLBI could benefit small and local businesses, fostering healthier neighborhood economies. #BillC223
