This past paycheque was… not enough. Of course. I don’t know what to do at this point… I work as much as I physically can, I cannot physically handle a second job to fill the time, and ODSP barely covers rent, most bills are on a constant payment arrangement to avoid disconnect.

Yeah... I've been slowly shifting my presence here. Only reason I hadn't stopped posting entirely boils down to money which given ODSP leaves me living 50% below the Canadian poverty line... It's a survival issue. X.X
Even up here in "free healthcare" Canada, the coverage is a joke. Dentists won't even take us because disability programs are using a decades old fee schedule. That being said, if you are in the downtown Toronto area and are on ODSP or similar program, I know a great free clinic. DM me for deets.
The problem with this isn't that MPPs are paid too much - their salaries should actually be raised substantially, you get the caliber of governance you pay for - it's the almost evil hypocrisy of doing so when people when there's ~500k Ontarians on ODSP living in poverty we force on them.
That maniacal weirdo doesn’t want ODSP to be liveable. That’s why he doesn’t do it. He’s a monster.
