Episode 7.14 - Panel Discussion on the UCP Cuts to Disabled Albertans!

The Breakdown With Nate Pike

To get a better grasp of the brutal clawback of federal supports intended to lift up disabled Albertans, the defunding of grassroots support groups and more, we're joined on this episode by disability self advocates Mike, Mary and Kavin as well as the executive director of the now defunded and shuttered Southern Alberta Individualized Planning Association which had been providing educational workshops for people with disabilities!
