On December 15, 2021 the following discussion happened in the House of Commons over Basic Income (guaranteed livable income).
Mike Morrice (Kitchener Centre)
[S-113] 15:17 , In Support
Mr. Speaker, Canadians with disabilities are disproportionately living in poverty across the country. It does not have to be this way.
Last summer's election call put a halt to Bill C-35, which would have created a Canada disability benefit, a guaranteed basic income for Canadians with a disability. While I was glad to see the Liberals promise to move forward with this benefit in their most recent election platform, it was not in the throne speech or in yesterday's economic update.
When will the Liberals do what they said they would do? Are they willing to fast-track the design and implementation of the Canada disability benefit so our neighbours living in poverty do not have to struggle through another three years?
