It's Time for a Guaranteed Basic Income
posted by Dan Bader on October 28, 2020
On August 10th, 2020, MP Leah Gazan submitted Motion 46 in the House of Commons, which calls for the CERB to be converted into a permanent Guaranteed Livable Basic Income. The motion comes out of a collaborative effort with Basic Income Manitoba and the Basic Income Canada Network. Read the full text of M-46 here.
Over 38,000 Canadians have signed the petition in support of this motion. Organizations from across the country are rallying behind the motion and campaigning together for a guaranteed livable basic income in Canada. With a new parliament and a Speech from the Throne expected in the coming weeks, the time to make a guaranteed livable basic income a reality is now.
