TODAY SHOW Halton Discuss Radio Broadcasting with Cam Wells

This episode features Cam Wells, host of the radio show "Handi-Link", a show that covers disability stories. The show is usually recorded at CJAM-FM in Windsor ON, and Cam has recently returned to the airwaves, after having set up a home recording studio. We talk about some of the newest interviews he's been hosting, and about the unique experiences of disabled folks in the times of a Global Pandemic. We talk about the people who access and depend on ODSP for support - in many cases, quarantining has added additional expenses for folks on ODSP. Plus, a lot of folks on ODSP work part-time jobs to help subsidize their living expenses, and by extension are amongst the thousands of people who have taken a financial hit by loss of employment during COVID. So there are added costs, and reduced income...but folks on ODSP are not eligible for CERB. ODSP pays roughly $750-$1500 a month to an individual living with a disability. CERB is currently paying $2000 a month. But in order to access the emergency relief benefit and temporarily receive a higher amount of money, a person would have to cancel their ODSP, and risk not being able to access it again. There is a lot to be inspired by, talking to Cam, and hearing stories of perseverance amongst the folks he's interviewing. But it is clear, on a federal and provincial level, that folks are being left behind and financial support still has a long way to go.  Check out “Handi-Link” at http://www.cjam.ca/supercali/show_event.php?id=96This interview was originally recorded on May 14th 2020Added note post interview: new information has been found since this interview, and it sounds like (thankfully) folks on ODSP will not necessarily lose their benefits by applying for CERB, but that there will be a correction/adjustment when CERB stops being given out.  This is how it was explained to me by Cam: “According to Ken Pope an ODSP expert attorney, what happens is those on ODSP are obliged to apply for CERB - which is a greater amount than ODSP - which ill produce a long term offset once ODSP is back to normal as calculations will indicate there was an overpayment in the form of CERB.  There is a lot of misinformation out there but it appears as though it won't cause long term loss, just a shift in amounts” This is a public episode.
