## Resource

On this episode of PWD Allies podcast, Brent Frain is back for another rant & rave about provincial disability policy that doesn't make sense. Here in BC, PWD Income Assistance is barrier-filled and gated with crisis support supplements or extra dietary cash supplements almost impossible to access. The provincial government solution? Throw a jar full of pink unicorns at the problem. PWD Allies podcast airs every week on YouTube, hosted by Brent Frain. This episode livestreamed via YouTube on April 10, 2026.
