Petition to Justin Trudeau
Those who admit themselves to hospitals as a last resort when combating severe mental health issues are often faced with professionals in a system that questions the legitimacy of their problems and is not equipped to provide appropriate care.
Samwel Uko (Donga) was 20 when this system failed him. Born and raised in South Sudan he came to Canada at age 5. He was known as a vibrant, caring athlete in his community in Abbotsford BC. He continued his athletic career playing football in Saskatchewan. He took his life after making public pleas for help on social media and in a video where he was in the hospital surrounded by staff from which he was shortly discharged.
A vast group of people in Canada don't have the resources to access mental health services. Hospitals and medical staff are overwhelmed and under resourced. From a community who has seen multiple young people taking their lives after interacting with medical staff we are asking the government to include counselling and mental health services as part of our medical system.
The cost of suicide has larger and deeper affects on communities than the cost of increased care. Suicide ripples through society and plagues families with mental health burdens that provoke more tragedy. Increasing mental health services benefit all. If Samwel would have experienced a more holistic continuum of care he may still be with us today. Read more

Petition to Doug Ford
Disabled people in Ontario live in legislative poverty and no political party seems to care.
The most a single person on ODSP can make is $1200 a month, which has not been increased in twenty-seven years despite inflation and increased cost of living. ODSP recipients have discussed how they can hardly afford food, spending as little as $50 a week on groceries and taking appetite suppressants to stave off their appetite, unable to even eat three meals a day. One ODSP recipient on Reddit discussed eating dandelions and using a pickle bucket to do laundry as survival tips. When people are on ODSP because of severe mental health issues, treating those illnesses is impossible when they are suffering from the effects of poverty.
What's worse is now ODSP recipients are applying for medical assistance in dying so that they don't have to live in poverty anymore. The government is more willing to euthanize its people than to help them live comfortably.
It's almost as if the government wants us to die because they see us as a waste of tax dollars. We can't live with other people or even get married without fear of losing some of what little money we receive. Even homeless ODSP recipients receive much less than $1200/month.
We can't let this go on any longer. We are people and we deserve to live comfortably and not struggle to survive. I implore the reader of this petition to share this as far and wide as possible and generate discussion so that it may reach our government.Read more
