*“This bill would allow me to live instead of trying to survive.” -
Anonymous, Regina SK*

*The finish line is in sight for Bill C-22 and the Canada Disability
Benefit (CDB).* After passing in the House last week, the Senate must
approve it one more time before it can become law. [1]

*But, the Senate is about to adjourn for summer. * [2] We must make sure
Bill C-22 is passed before then – if not, the CDB could be delayed. *Again.*
[3] *People with disabilities can’t wait any longer.*

*40 percent of people living in poverty in Canada have a disability,* yet
the disability poverty crisis is virtually invisible to those who do not
experience it. [4] People with disabilities have waited for too long to
receive the life-saving supports this bill would begin to give them. *We
can’t leave them waiting any longer.*

We have a small window of time to act, Brenda. The Senate isn’t used to
being on the receiving end of public scrutiny, but with a bill this
important, we need them to act with urgency. *So if we showcase direct
public pressure by emailing Senators while they vote, calling on them to
pass Bill C-22 before their summer recess,* we could help convince them to
pass the bill quickly. *Will you email your Senators now to pass Bill C-22
without delay?

Last week, the House of Commons voted again on Bill C-22 and the CDB – in
what has been a two-year process since the bill was first tabled in 2021.
MPs from all parties voted to accept all but one of the Senate’s
amendments. The bill now goes back to Senate for a final vote before it can
become law. [5]

It’s unacceptable that it’s taken so long for folks with disabilities to
get the support they need to live their lives with dignity.

And while not perfect in its current form — the bill only covers working
Canadians under 65 –

*it is a necessary first step to move people up to at least the poverty
line. One thing that unites the Leadnow community is our belief in building
a society where no one gets left behind.* That means creating a strong
safety net so no matter what you’re facing, who you are, or where you live,
you have what you need to live a dignified life. *Will you take a few
minutes to email Senate calling on them to pass Bill C-22 without delay?
