Proposition législative, Projet de loi ou résolution
Private Members Bill formerly known as Bill C-458, along with a proposal the MS Society of Canada has to improve flexibility in the Employment Insurance Sickness Benefits Program
We are asking members of parliament to support Motion M-192 that states "That the Standing Committee on Human Resources, Skills and Social Development and the Status of Persons with Disabilities be instructed to provide recommendations for legislative and policy changes necessary to ensure that the needs of persons with episodic disabilities caused, among other things, by multiple sclerosis, be adequately protected to ensure equity in government policy to support Canadians across all types of disability; that the Committee report to the House by February 2019; and that it be instructed to request a comprehensive government response to its report, pursuant to Standing Order 109.”
We are asking that the federal government pass formerly known as Bill C-81, the proposed Accessible Canada Act which includes all Canadians with disabilities whether their disabilities are visible or invisible, and whether they are permanent or episodic (periods of wellness followed by periods of disability). The definition of disability needs to include the notion of the changing dynamic of disability including episodic, which is the case for individuals living with progressive neurological diseases like MS;
