S3 Ep. 82 Emergency podcast! BC PWD Fraud: Who's Responsible?

Jeff Leggat is joining PWD Allies for an emergency podcast.A media story broke on Global BC News yesterday with a whistleblower claiming that millions of dollars in fraudulent provincial disability claims are being funneled through the offices of BC Ministry of Social Development and Poverty Reduction.Disability Alliance BC and many other advocates are understandably upset with how this news story has been framed to hurt people with disabilities. But who's really to blame? Is it BC PWD clients...or is the fraud stemming from unscrupulous business owners or bad landlords? Or maybe the BC government isn't doing it's due diligence on security checks...as the whistleblower alleges disability case managers are encouraged to issue PWD cheques without verification.PWD Allies podcast airs LIVE! every week on YouTube, hosted by Brent Frain. ** This episode was pre-recorded on December 5, 2025.
