Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Thank you, colleagues. Mr. Speaker, in Alberta, these exemptions allow the families that are experiencing financial difficulties to get back on their feet without jeopardizing essential needs. It may also be the key to recipients relying less on income support payments.
Mr. Speaker, with the program we have in place compared to the AISH program, our disability assistance recipients fall short of their needs. I'm especially concerned for the disabled with terminal illnesses. They have to worry about finances that are not being covered under current benefits. Some don't qualify for any special benefits. Mr. Speaker, this government has to change their attitude towards the people on income support, especially towards our disabled residents. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
