Tories to pitch change to benefits clawback for disabled people who want to work


OTTAWA — The federal Conservatives will keep rolling out policy this week, with the latest move in their playbook — a new approach to disabilities benefits — expected to be detailed later today. The pitch will come in the form of a private member’s bill sponsored by Tory finance critic Pierre Poilievre. The Tories argue the government’s policies hurt more than they help, and they are offering up new tax changes as a way to undo that damage. Government House Leader Bardish Chagger also said last week the security costs are necessary when the prime minister travels. Both former prime minister Stephen Harper and his former chief of staff Ray Novak have now publicly admitted they were aware of allegations against one MP, Rick Dykstra.
