[Resist!ca]

OCAP ; Aug 3, 2004 The Ontario Coalition Against Poverty (OCAP) is taking up 
the case of a man who is being hounded by an unscrupulous loan company. Geoff 
owes money on a credit card. He is living on a sub poverty allowance that he 
receives from the Ontario Disability Support Plan. He has multiple health 
problems that include worsening and uncontrollable seizures that are triggered 
by stress. The task of collecting Geoff’s debt has now been taken up by a loan 
company called MBNA [...which...] suggested that he should sell his bed in 
order to pay them what they want!
