Canada Disability Benefit won't lift 'hundreds of thousands' out of poverty, new numbers confirm

Kamal Khera, minister of Diversity, Inclusion and Persons with Disabilities, speaks during a press conference at a transit bus maintenance facility in Brampton, Ont., on Friday, June 7, 2024.

The new Canada Disability Benefit will lift about 25,000 adults out of poverty, according to new numbers released by the federal government — a figure well short of the hundreds of thousands the government said the benefit would help when it introduced the legislation in 2022.
