Friend sent me this link about real results of Adap:

Let’s be real. Nobody in the ucp govt knows wtf they’re talking about, and outlook doesn’t look good for Aish folks.

“Underfunding does not eliminate expenditure;…
It shifts costs into high-intensity services such as healthcare, emergency housing, and crisis response, where interventions are reactive rather than preventative and significantly more expensive per case.”

Think this will have any impact on the implementation of #Adap? Or will the #abgovt continue to expect disabled people to compete for non-existent jobs… with no recent work history, likelihood of spotty attendance, despite meltdowns, and in consistent pain and anxiety?

#DanielleSmith is using lies AISH. "Benefit shopping" is a myth—poverty is a trap, not a choice. Most can't even afford a bus ticket from Ontario, let alone the thousands required for rent and deposits. Smith, where is the evidence? Stop punching down. #ableg #AISH #ABpoli
Disabled Albertans Deserve Better Than a Dual-Track Assistance Program #aish via @thetyee.ca thetyee.ca/Opinion/2026...

My brother Chris Rowley getting shoutout from the @mayorhyggen.bsky.social Mayor of Lethbridge regarding the changes to AISH and how it will affect the citizens of Lethbridge #yql #aish
#Aish folks, check your payment.
Just realized that despite #Aish stating they would take $200/mo from #Disabled folks starting in APRIL, if they weren’t accepted to #CanadaDisabilityBenefit… my March benefit was -$200.
Even though I sent documentation that I was accepted.
Do everything right.
Still get screwed.
#Disability
🤬😭
As if taking the entire #CanadaDisabilityBenefit from #Disabled folks isn’t enough…
#AISH apparently decided to let the money be deposited into my account anyway, just to really gd rub it in and make me jump through hoops to GIVE THEM the money after the fact…?
They ignore every email. WTF.

I'm an advocate for #MAID. But no person should consider it because making ends meet or life difficulties are impossible to navigate is making life impossible. It requires a return to #humanvalues #empathy, #inclusion #livingwage #AISH #freehealthcare restored & #support reimagined. #(S)HeAintHeavy

If you vote ucp, and you aren’t screaming at them to STOP CUTS TO DISABLED FOLKS, don’t even LOOK AT ME.
I’m going to have to sell my tiny, bad side of town condo if these cuts continue, and I have no idea where we’ll go.
That’s why I started sobbing.

This homeless man is far more knowledgeable on current affairs than most! Goes to show we should not judge a book by its cover.
#AISH funding is being clawed back by #DanielleSmith and the #Alberta government. Some say "I can't imagine how an "independent Alberta" would treat the disabled."
I can.
Are you a person receiving AISH or living with a disability in AB? I'm leading a research study on the economic well-being of AISH clients/PWDs and would welcome your participation. Please click the link below to learn more & sign up #Alberta #AISH #ADAP #disability

More hospital ER closures thanks to our Alberta #UCP conservative government. It is impossible to prepare in advance for an emergency but at least be aware of the closures and times. Good luck. (hugs) #AISH
2/8 The most glaring departure is the attack on disability supports.
Replacing #AISH with the "Alberta Disability Assistance Program" is a masterclass in bureaucratic cruelty.
$200 cuts for new applicants. Slashed earnings exemptions.
Trapping vulnerable Albertans in deeper #Poverty.
Or know anyone who does, explain to them what is happening to disabled Albertans, and have them understand that everyone is able until their not. Everyone deserve the right to safety and the ability to live their life with the fear of destitution. Spread the word, HELP #AISH! 6/6

I’m writing an extremely thorough complaint letter regarding the new Alberta Disability Assistance Program (ADAP). It’s taking me a while, so I decided to share some of my research in shorter segments.
