The UCP wants disabled people in Alberta to find jobs and work in order to survive. If they can't work, they shouldn't be allowed to survive. There may be some issues with that...
They are drastically cutting AISH by putting AISH recipients on a new program where they receive much less and must supplement that income with employment.
Note that we already have a social welfare program for people who are able to work, called Alberta Supports. There's a reason why the "severely handicapped" are separate and require "assured income".
