This book was released on 2002 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1999 signing of the Social Union Framework Agreement, the elimination of government deficits, and an apparent trend to decentralisation have increased the focus on Canada's social policy and the manner of its formulation. While disability policy, a key element of social policy that is seldom high on the country's policy agenda, is sharing in the renewed interest, no significant disability policy changes have yet emerged.The Social Union and Disability Policy examines the development of Canadian disability policy and the current political landscape that will influence new policy. It offers an agenda for reform of the disability insurance system and for the provision of supports and services for people with disabilities. The focus is on the impact of governance structures, those now in place and those that might be expected to yield improved policy outcomes while promoting the principles of federalism and democratic oversight.Contributors to the volume are academics Michael Prince (University of Victoria), Roy Hanes (Carleton University) and Allan Moscovitch (Carleton University), NGO representative Michael Bach (Roeher Institute) and social policy analysts Marcia Rioux (York University) and Alan Puttee.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In British Columbia, there are many programs & discounts that benefit people with disabilities, but the existing system requires separate applications & substantiation of disability for each program. Many people with disabilities believe that this system is bureaucratic, costly, and even inaccessable to some, and have suggested alternatives such as a single application process to cover all programs. This report documents background on the work performed on a universal eligibility process, provides an overview of the province's discount & benefit programs for people with disabilities, summarizes concerns about the current system and a proposed universal system, and summarizes recommendations arising from discussions with people with disabilities and disability advocates. Finally, it presents an anthology of stories of people with disabilities who have had experience in accessing the various discounts & benefits intended for them in British Columbia.
