Janell Dymus says Basic Income recognises people where they are in life, be it mountaintops, valleys or trenches. Basic Income recognises people's right to look after themselves. #UBI #BasicIncome #bien2022

Thank you to Jessie Golem of @humansbasic
for talking to me about the Ontario Basic Income Pilot (OBIP) that was cancelled by Doug Ford’s government even though they had promised to keep it.

For Jessie and many others, the pilot was a financial lifeline. #BasicIncome

"It was random. And now you're stuck with me."
