It's really upsetting that there is so little in the news about disabled people who can't work being forced into deep poverty by the government. We can't keep going like this. The #CDB is such a failure 😪

My hands are getting harder and harder to use and my neck is bad. I have 3 herniated discs in my neck and moderate spinal stenosis. My sciatic nerves where crushed my vertebrae... if you could help with pain treatment. New pcp apt 03-17. No medication right now 💔 linktr.ee/Stardrifter42 Thank you ❣️

It has been ANOTHER tough year for Disabled Canadians on Disability Income Support in EVERY Province/Territory 🇨🇦 - continuing to suffer in government-imposed POVERTY. Please, let us provide Poverty Level support for ALL 1.5 million PWD in 2026! Merry Christmas to my fellow PWD! 🙏❤️🌲

@basicbc.bsky.social Merry Christmas Tom! 🎄🎅

Friday marked the grand opening of a unique food bank in Langford. The Veterans Food Bank Victoria's target market is military veterans and first responders, and operators say there is growing demand for this type of service in the region.  

The B.C. NDP and B. C. Greens worked together on the initiative through their co-operation and responsible governance accord agreement. Rob Botterell, Saanich North MLA representing the Greens, said clawbacks put up roadblocks and he’s glad they’re ending. #bcpoli

I have let my colleagues at Global BC know that November 18 is going to be my last day with the company and as a reporter at the Legislature. I have made the decision to take my passion and try something new and I am deeply grateful to all of the viewers and to my colleagues. #bcpoli

My former NDP MP colleague Don Davies brought the voices of the National Disability Network and 900k+ disabled Canadians to Parliament. Bill C-4 lowers taxes—but also reduces disability tax credits. The NDP is calling on all parties to fix this before it becomes law. #FIXIT

Most disabled people who can't work and rely on government support just want enough money so we can pay our bills and rent, get groceries, do laundry, get a haircut, buy our medications and devices and look after our support animals properly with some left over to get clothes or replace things.

There is still time to FIX IT! This oversight needs to be corrected before the tax cut becomes law. This letter in the video makes an important point that might easily be overlooked in a broad tax policy decision:

🚨Can Anyone PLEASE Help with $50 towards groceries or medication? Disabled and living in legislated poverty, every single day is a struggle🙏

The streets of downtown Victoria will be filled with excitement this morning as the 125th annual Thrifty Foods Victoria Day Parade kicks off — a tradition that marks one of the city's largest and most anticipated community events of the year.
