In P.E.I., a model for a guaranteed basic income has emerged that is feasible and affordable. As Benoît Robidoux, Wayne Simpson and Barbara Boraks explain, this proposal would virtually eradicate poverty among working-age adults and their children. options-po.li/3JooleZ

When people received CERB, they were more likely to spend locally. Most small businesses are self-funded, and the dwindling middle-class means less entrepreneurship. A #GLBI could benefit small and local businesses, fostering healthier neighborhood economies. #BillC223

Bill S-233 (An Act to develop a national framework for a guaranteed livable basic income) is 1 vote away from passage. If it is passed in Committee, it returns to the Senate where we have every expectation that it already has the votes to pass 3rd Reading. #BasicIncome #PhoneThem

Reflecting on Mandela's wisdom: Basic income isn't just about financial support, it's about ensuring everyone has the freedom to live with dignity and pursue their dreams. Let's continue the fight for a future where poverty doesn't limit our freedom. 🌟 #BasicIncome #EndPoverty
