I guess cutting supports for the most vulnerable in society was worth the tax cuts and payouts to coal companies. Just ####ing monstrous stuff that will save so little money I can't even imagine how they spotted it on a balance sheet.

disability advocacy group in Calgary is shutting its doors this week — one year after the Alberta government axed its funding.

For 28 years, Disability Action Hall has given disabled Calgarians a place to connect, share their stories and fight for change.

“It’s a necessity. It’s an essential service. It’s no different than providing one-to-one support for persons with disabilities,” she said.

A Calgarian living with terminal cancer is calling on health officials in the province to restore access to an after-hours specialist phone line for cancer patients in southern Alberta.

"I don't have years and years and years ahead of me. I'm going on chemo for life now. My life is much shorter,” she said.
“The last place I want to be is in the hospital because I couldn't get access to an oncologist on call."

"We know this will lead to more pressure on our emergency rooms. But it will also create more gaps in cancer care, more stress for patients.”
Gallaway said he believes the provincial government should be prioritizing services that could take pressure off overwhelmed ERs.
“Every program that we can do that keeps someone out of an emergency waiting room we should be doing right now," said Gallaway.

I've relied on this service in the past, and it absolutely kept us from going to the ER.

I hope you UCP voters remember stuff like this the next time you are in a voting booth. Keep in mind the image of a disabled person you are making life harder for, and the people dying of Cancer who have to take on another stressor. Consider that before the tax cut, if you possess a soul at all. Think what Jesus might do. I don't give a ####, just don't tick that mother####ing box.

What are we even doing anymore as a society? Just nauseating.
