Persons with Disabilities 120% tax rate applied

Mr. Speaker, like young people, disabled Canadians want the opportunity to
work. A million of them already do, and private sector companies like Tim
Hortons, RBC, and KPMG want to continue hiring them, but a disabled worker
earning minimum wage can lose as much as $1.20 in clawbacks and taxes on
every new dollar he earns. 


No one can afford to work with a 120% tax rate.
Will the finance minister show leadership to remove this poverty trap and
make work pay?
