  • It’s why I moved out to BC. My son has a disability, in Ontario if I left him inheritance and he was on a disability program the Ontario government would take the inheritance. In BC they see disability and inheritance as separate items and leave it alone.

    There are ways around it in Ontario by setting up a special trust fund, but a province that takes away what should belong to somebody is not a good province.

    You could argue that he’s getting disability funds, but that is based on income and leaving a person inheritance is not income. And if it generates income then you should get taxed like normal, and disability payment adjusted to suit


  • Are you from America where you have never heard other English colloquial terms? Not being a dick, just asking. Because took in is a common phrase I heard in the UK, like I took in a lodger. And caught doesn’t always mean captured by surprise, it can be more subtle like a moment in time, like I caught a glimpse of him searching for food scraps. Shortened to I caught him eating scraps, etc. Meaning visually.
