TURMEL: Will S.233 cancel funding of unvaxed?

[John KingofthePaupers Turmel]

JCT: It doesn't specify what it can do but what it can do
can be discerned in the political verbiage:

PARLIAMENT OF CANADA
BILL S-233
First Reading
First Session, Forty-fourth Parliament,
70 Elizabeth II, 2021

SENATE OF CANADA
BILL S-233
An Act to develop a national framework for a guaranteed
livable basic income

JCT: That's the cover story, it's to provide a guaranteed
livable basic income to those who obey.

FIRST READING, DECEMBER 16, 2021
THE HONOURABLE SENATOR Pate

4412114

SUMMARY

This enactment requires the Minister of Finance to develop a
national framework to provide all persons over the age of 17
in Canada with access to a guaranteed livable basic income.
It also provides for reporting requirements with respect to
the framework.

JCT: It's "to provide access" to all persons who qualify.

BILL S-233

An Act to develop a national framework for a guaranteed
livable basic income

Preamble
Whereas every person should have access to a livable basic
income;

JCT: Not every person should have a livable basic income,
only access if you qualify.

Whereas the provision of a guaranteed livable basic income
would go a long way toward eradicating poverty and improving
income equality, health conditions and educational outcomes;

Whereas the provision of a guaranteed livable basic income
would benefit individuals, families and communities and
protect those who are made most vulnerable in society, while
facilitating the transition to an economy that responds to
the climate crisis and other current major challenges;

And whereas a guaranteed livable basic income program
implemented through a national framework would ensure the
respect, dignity and security of all persons in Canada;

JCT: Sure, it will do a log of good for those who qualify.

Now, therefore, Her Majesty, by and with the advice and
consent of the Senate and House of Commons of Canada, enacts
as follows:

Short title
1. This Act may be cited as the National Framework for a
Guaranteed Livable Basic Income Act.

Interpretation
Definitions
2. The following definitions apply in this Act.

Indigenous governing body means a council, government or
other entity that is authorized to act on behalf of an
Indigenous group, community or people that holds rights
recognized and affirmed by section 35 of the Constitution
Act, 1982. (corps dirigeant autochtone)

Minister means the Minister of Finance. (ministre)

National Framework
Development
3. (1) The Minister must develop a national framework for
the implementation of a guaranteed livable basic income
program throughout Canada for any person over the age of 17,
including temporary workers, permanent residents and refugee
claimants.

JCT: For "any person" who qualifies. not "every person."

Consultation
(2) In developing the framework, the Minister must consult
with the Minister of Health, the ministers responsible for
employment, social development and disability,
representatives of the provincial governments responsible
for health, disability, education and social development,
Indigenous elders, Indigenous governing bodies and other
relevant stakeholders, including policy developers and
political decision-makers, as well as experts in other
guaranteed livable basic income programs.

Content
(3) The framework must include measures

(a) to determine what constitutes a livable basic income for
each region in Canada, taking into account the goods and
services that are necessary to ensure that individuals can
lead a dignified and healthy life, as well as the cost of
those goods and services in accessible markets;

JCT: Lots of bureaucracy to distribute different amounts.

(b) to create national standards for health and social
supports that complement a guaranteed basic income program
and guide the implementation of such a program in every
province;

JCT: National standards for health will include requirement
to be vaxed, no doubt. They just won't tell us now, only
later.

(c) to ensure that participation in education, training or
the labour market is not required in order to qualify for a
guaranteed livable basic income; and

JCT: So they tell us what's participation is not required to
qualify but not what participation is required to qualify!
Participation in being vaxed someday later?

(d) to ensure that the implementation of a guaranteed
livable basic income program does not result in a decrease
in services or benefits meant to meet an individual's
exceptional needs related to health or disability.

JCT: So "the implementation must not result in a decrease
in services or benefits meant to meet an individual's
exceptional needs related to health." But may result in a
decrease meant to meet an individual's regular needs."

Reports to Parliament

Tabling of framework
4. (1) Within one year after the day on which this Act comes
into force, the Minister must prepare a report setting out
the framework, including any social, health and economic
conclusions and recommendations related to its development,
and cause the report to be tabled in each House of
Parliament on any of the first 15 days on which that House
is sitting after the report is completed.

JCT: In a year, we'll find out what health conclusions and
recommendations will be levied upon us.

Publication
(2) The Minister must publish the report on the website of
the Department of Finance within 10 days after the report
has been tabled in both Houses of Parliament.

Report
5. Within two years after the report referred to in section
4 has been tabled in both Houses of Parliament, and every
year after that, the Minister must, in consultation with the
parties referred to in subsection 3(2), undertake a review
of the effectiveness of the framework, prepare a report
setting out the social, health and economic findings and
recommendations related to the implementation and
effectiveness of the framework, and cause the report to be
tabled in each House of Parliament on any of the first 15
days on which that House is sitting after it is completed.


JCT: Every 2 years, the Minister must review the health
findings and recommendations.

Published under authority of the Senate of Canada

So on a bill to give any qualified person access to a
guaranteed livable basic income, they'll get to make being
vaxed a requirement of qualification. Without mentioning it
once.

Could the Liberals be that tricky? Har har har.

Looks like I'll have to file an objection in Federal Court
even though I've been barred as a "vexatious litigant" and
can't without seeking leave. Okay. I will. And if I'm not
granted leave, I can appeal.
