Disable This !!!l - By Farhan A. and Moses

Newsletter #1

  1. In todays' age, we see roughly 20% of the North American Population having Mental Health Issues, severe enough to be considered Mental Health Problems. This means that roughly 20% of our population is eligible for Federal, State, Provincial Funding.
    This may be disheartening, however, many Bureaucracies are discriminating against the Physically 'Disabled' in the name of Wheel-Trans, MP Offices, and other Government Services that are specifically in place to accommodate the Physically 'Disabled'.

    As Service Rates are being lowered, the physically 'disabled' (and Mental Health Survivors for that matter), are left with no lobbying options and caught in a loophole in place (essentially a loophole trap). Being dismayed at bullying tactics, a Client will most likely complain; Were you upset at the driver? The question is premeditating. This is a complete withdrawal of services/ likewise service entitlements. When someone is told to be yourself by some Bureaucracies, in actual fact the premeditated response is of the Bureaucracy playing G-d to you. 'There's a Focus Group, that can prove, at the root, we're all nothing but cold calculation' (Gord Downie)is a summize, of what many Canadians dealing with Bureaucracy encounter. In actual fact, a person labeled 'Physically' Disabled may actually be the brightest Medical Mind. Should we be harnessing our skills, or do we want to promote a greater 'Disability' Population. It is of this writers' opinion that should 'Disability' Claims exceed 33% in North America, SHIT WILL FLY!!!

    Disable This !!! has been established to speak out towards these injustices, and to insure that a person in a Wheelchair isn't treated like a second class citizen when they are Canadian Citizens. We would just like to strive, not to be a Disability Pensioner, but rather viable, and in demand towards the workforce (Gainfully Employed).
