Re: NJC welfare

[sl . m]

Mags, I read in Kimberly's inquest stories that, just six months previously, what she did would not have been illegal. So maybe there's been a recent law change (she died in August 2001). Or maybe it's just Ontario. One of the worst things is the Ontario lifetime ban on welfare they can impose on you if you're convicted of "cheating". What is a person supposed to do then?

While I dont know this story that you have referred to, I do know people very close to me that did get both welfare and student loans at the same time....and they had to pay an emotional price for doing so. ..Perhaps it is only in Ontario.
