β€œ Denying people with a mental or physical disability or both the assistance to which they are entitled in this arbitrary way is cruel and inhumane. It is discriminatory. It strips them of their dignity and interferes with their liberty and the security of their person."

Huge news from Nova Scotia, here is a clip from the article, since we are not able to share the link:

Public funds set aside for disability assistance benefits were limited by an arbitrary cap and were treated as discretionary, which resulted in many applicants being placed on wait-lists.

Without that financial support, many of these applicants had no choice but to remain in what may have been unsuitable living arrangements with relatives, or in institutional facilities, nursing homes, hospitals or small-options homes far from their families. Some of those forced to live in hospitals and nursing homes did not have any medical conditions and were not elderly.

"In many cases, these arrangements continue for years, often decades," the statement of claim says.

"Denying people with a mental or physical disability or both the assistance to which they are entitled in this arbitrary way is cruel and inhumane. It is discriminatory. It strips them of their dignity and interferes with their liberty and the security of their person."
