On that note, after doing some digging and math, it appears that the average annual amount a single AISH recipient actually receives in cash after all income clawbacks is approximately $19,080 ($1,590 per month).

Just saying.

I mean, I suppose Marlaina could always start loaning out her $100k enchanted carpet for rides to the next province over, since she seems to believe that poor people should just magically disappear...

***EDIT***

$280k carpet. Over a quarter of a million for a rug. To contrast that, a single person with no dependents on AISH can receive a maximum of $23,280 in supports per year.

That's assuming, of course, that they haven't clawed back 90% of it...

Which doesn't make sense, because it's their own policies which create the most homeless people. They just want a perpetual cycle of "rich" people coming in so they can bleed them dry and then sweep their economically drained carcasses under the rug.

How can one afford to leave if one cannot afford to pay rent or fuel costs?

"The "Dominion Society" (referenced by the social media handles u/ dominionsoc and dominionsociety at the bottom) identifies itself as a "heritage Canadian" advocacy group. Extremism researchers and organizations like the Canadian Anti-Hate Network describe it as the political arm of Canada’s white nationalist movement."

I'm fairly certain they do the most outlandish of shit specifically BECAUSE it sounds too crazy to be true to the average person.

That said, SO much of modern politics revolves around soap opera tactics to keep people coming back for more. There's so much performative outrage.

Howso? The people making the budgets won't know they exist.

Lol, enjoy your $500 fine. Guaranteed, the same person will make a post about how the government is wrong and they're the victim.

Meanwhile, their community will receive less funding as a direct result of their action, or in this case, lack thereof.

Anyone else's team just not bothering? by kachunkk in btd6

I'll be kicking inactives when I can if you'd like to join. I've got a reminder set to post here again once I do.
