Lawyer representing the lead plaintiffs argues in a statement of claim filed today that the early termination of the project amounts to a breach of contract

Four people who had been receiving a basic guaranteed income under a pilot project have launched a proposed class action against the Progressive Conservative government for cancelling it.

The former Liberal government announced the project in April 2017 to provide a guaranteed annual income to participants in three Ontario cities – Hamilton, Thunder Bay and Lindsay – with the intent of making it a three-year study.

Where do four people on welfare get the money to launch a class action lawsuit against a deep-pocketed government? onpoli

Lazy ass people suit government cause they are too lazy to work? Sounds like some quality fella here.

I am sick and tired of paying taxes so people who don’t have to work or don’t want to work. Thy need to live within their means.

It just never ends.......oh wait, it did.

Privileged class

Yes sure why not? The taxpayers are obligated to pay an income to every asshole. Only in liberal world. So sick of these leftists.

How can people be this greedy

It is unethical for not to mention that this project was doomed before it even started according to acedemics. But we are getting use to the MSM lying to us to push their political agenda aren't we?

So they stop getting free money, then sue the government, which tax payers pay. Nice.

Pilot

Lol you can’t sue because they changed policies...happens all around the world new governments come in and change things. This goes to Canadian courts what’s the point of government?

good luck with that basic-income was not a permanent plan (pilot)

Do they know what a pilot is?

Ms Wynne's entitlements

Ford is a FATFUCK

'How DARE you make us go back to work.'
