Julia’s Advocacy Corner – December 2024

Happy Holidays!

I’m looking forward to some relaxation, delicious food and family time! I was at a local holiday market last weekend and it helped get me in the holiday mood.

Now that British Columbia has confirmed that they will not claw back any of the CDB funding, it’s great to see that policy has been drafted by two political parties in BC proposing that if people are living together, there will also not be any reductions in funding amount. I’m looking forward to attending all my friend’s weddings with Rocky as a ring bearer!

As well, Disability without Poverty will continue to request more funding for the Canadian Disability Benefit. Depending on a Federal election timing, there could be rallies across Canada in May and June.

I look forward to a year of rights, people in power listening and helping everyone as much as I can.

Happy holidays everyone,

Julia and Rocky
