Thanks for the help, IM A Social Service Worker here in Toronto Ontario Canada. I have worked in Addictions, Emergencies Homeless hostels, and have seen and been involved with the community for over 10 years. I have first hand knowledge the welfare system does not work and people on it are dieing, and going homeless. Please help in this fight.

In Ontario the Government decreased the Social Income for single adults too 536.00 dollars a month from 638.00 dollars a month since 1995.

Furthermore, the welfare department does not include money for any other expensives. SO a single person on welfare has too pay rent, food, clothes, and other care products out of this.

How does anyone, live on this is beyound me. Im asking for all interested in parties too sign this petition inorder for the government too increase monies which people are entitled too. Not once in over 10 years have the people in need seen an increase in their welfare. Yet all prices surround have gone up.

Most people on welfare, become homeless, addicted too certain drugs and suicede. We need too increase this social net too 800.00 dollars for a single man/women in need right now and only can do this with your help. So please sign.

I can only give you a few details here, however I comment too tell you too search this topic, make your decisions with a sound understanding and sign this petition. Im hoping I can start the fight for the poverty group.

If enough sign this pitition I will be able too focus on legal action for the people with a class action suit.

thanks
