Advocates say disability definitions exclusionary
Advocates for people with episodic disabilities say they don't understand why the federal government has two different definitions of disability in law, and uses the narrower version to decide who's eligible for benefits. Amanda Fraser says that means she can't get access to some federal programs because her multiple sclerosis is not considered to be disabling 90 per cent of the time. (July 25, 2026)
