🚨 Lots of folks reaching out to me today to say they can't afford a Thanksgiving meal for themselves or families. 💔
If this is you, please respond to this post and I will RT all asks.
Let's help, everyone who can! Let's get some food or $ out to some folks this long weekend. 🌞 #canada
@TrungTPhan If your decision to purchase an iPhone is for it to withstand fire from a blow torch, I think you aren’t looking for the right things from a cell phone.
Just received notice that my rent is increasing starting January. They also require tenant insurance now, which means my rent is increasing by $50 a month. Where this is going to come from, I don’t know. It’s all just stress on top of stress. I’m so tired of it.
@taylorswift13 You know, you shouldn’t advertise this as “in North America”, if it doesn’t include Canada. Canada is also in North America. Why do you hate Canada?
It irks me a bit when people are saying to a person with disabilities to be grateful for the crumbs they got today. We are kept in extreme poverty, asking for charity every month while this government stalls on the promised disability benefit. I'm not grateful. I'm angry. 💔
Also, Wheeltrans dropped me off at the wrong location today. I felt bad, so I didn’t say anything. It was only just down the street, but it seems even further when you are using a walker.
It’s been reported that Ontario has 22.6 billion in “excess funds”, and they’re using it on programs or debt. While PWD continue to live in poverty? I’m so frustrated and sick of this. Will it ever change? I don’t think it will.

Every day is another day to hold the Liberal government to account for their failure to support the human rights of persons with disabilities. #liberalFail#derb
I am angered hearing Justin Trudeau say that people with disabilities are facing less poverty, that the poverty rate has been cut in half. It pisses me off that he can be so blind to our reality in this country.
I am overdrawn on my overdraft now. Completely at a loss on how the Canadian government expect a disabled person to live on an income that was inadequate 20 yrs ago in 2023. 💔
No money for bills or food, no support, not even acknowledged.
Hey @fordnation because you won’t give disabled Ontarians a livable income I have to go through my period this week with only toilet paper and a hand towel (which I’ll have to cut up). You have daughters so how would you feel if they couldn’t buy what they need? #ODSP#ODSPoverty
Hello everyone! I know I haven’t been active for a good while on here, but I’m ok. I hope everyone is ok as well. I think about Twitter and how much it helped when I really needed it, and I feel guilty I don’t interact more, but my day to day isn’t much fun.
My love to all ❤️
