Mr. Speaker, the Minister of National Revenue claims the disability tax credit rules have not changed for Canadians with type 1 diabetes, but that is not true.
An internal CRA memo from May 2 directs staff to reject all those claims, unless there are exceptional circumstances.
In Lakeland, Alice, a small business owner, and her son, both type 1 diabetics, have received that credit for many years. This spring, the CRA rejected her claim.
Will the minister stop this cold-hearted attack on vulnerable Canadians, and reverse this cruel decision?
