It's official. The CDB will be funnelled towards the GoA's budget instead of going to the people who need it as a non-direct transfer by forcing income support clients to apply for it so they can deduct provincial benefits dollar for dollar. #ABpoli #ableg

Applying for AISH is a messy business. Many people with disabilities don't qualify because they can't prove the permanency of their disability. enoughforall.ca/resources/im...
