i could not believe the joke of money that social services offers to us. sure i could aply for disabilty assistance but even at that like cpp here in canada you get denied on your first try. ok i understand that some people take advantage of the system but when you have been going to doctors taking medications having mental assesments and you still have to fight what does it take is what i ask. they want people to give up. when i went for social assistance they asked what i make. i make 120 every 2 weeks from wsib half of that goes to my support payments so i get 60.42 every 2 weeks but social services calculates on the full amount and deducts that from basic needs hmmm whats wrong with this picture. so they give me 252 every month now my rent is 352 do he math how will i live???
