About this audiobook
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
In the intricate tapestry of Canadian society, there exists a hidden reality, often overlooked and neglected – the plight of individuals living at the intersection of disability and poverty. "Broken Promises" is a poignant exploration into the systemic failures of the Canadian government in addressing the multifaceted challenges faced by these marginalized citizens.
Within these pages, readers are invited to embark on a journey through the lived experiences of those grappling with the harsh realities of disability and poverty in Canada. Through compelling narratives and insightful analysis, this book unveils the stark disparities and injustices that persist in our supposedly equitable society.
At the heart of this exploration lies the issue of insufficient financial assistance. Despite the purported safety net of social assistance programs, countless individuals find themselves trapped in a cycle of poverty, struggling to make ends meet amidst mounting medical expenses and the relentless burden of disability-related costs. "Broken Promises" delves deep into the repercussions of this inadequate support, shedding light on the profound impact it has on the lives of those it fails to uplift.
