[news] Diet Supplement Under Attack

[Resist!ca]

OCAP | Email Communication | July 14, 2005 Toronto's top welfare bureaucrats have quietly changed their Special Diet policy.  The Special Diet Supplement provides up to $250 a month per person on top of regular welfare, as long as a medical provider deems it necessary.  Over the last months,as a result of a campaign initiated by OCAP, thousands of those facing poverty and hunger in this City have obtained the Supplement.  Through OCAP's Special Diet clinics alone close to 2000 people have gotten the supplement.  Now an edict from welfare officialdom seeks to deny access to it and to take it from families who are benefiting from it.
