Because there is no "just" move.
Ontario Disability Support is only $1,228 a month. The "shelter allowance" out of that is a whole $522 towards housing. Province-wide.
Disabled people don't have equitable access to transportation, let alone a roof under their head. Moving isn't the answer.
People on CERB (that is - the Canada Emergency Response Benefit) received CA$2000 a month as a baseline during the pandemic. ODSP recipients didn't receive any additional benefits.
We need to raise the amount of money that disabled Canadians receive monthly. Nobody can live on what is essentially just a smidge over $900 US a month anywhere in Canada.
