S4 Ep. 08 Canada's Dirty Secret: The Financial Burden of Being Disabled

Living with a disability costs more money. It's the harsh reality faced by people with disabilities in Canada as they navigate the challenge of a "Crip Tax" problem. This term refers to the additional expenses that individuals with disabilities incur due to their disability, which can lead to financial strain and inequality.In this episode of PWD Allies podcast, we delve into the world of accessibility and inclusivity, exploring the ways in which people with disabilities are affected by this very real issue. From higher costs of living to limited access to resources, we examine the complexities of the Crip Tax problem and what it means for Canadians with disabilities. All of government (both federal and provincial) can, and should, be doing a lot more to ease this financial burden by better respecting the full autonomy of every disabled individual. PWD Allies podcast airs every week on YouTube, hosted by Brent Frain. ** This episode was pre-recorded and then released on January 8, 2026.
