Question on the #NWT's "... strategic framework for the elimination of #poverty..."

By the way... When a I posted a question about this a moment ago on this "PovertyFreeNWT" https://www.facebook.com/pages/PovertyFreeNWT/472164742815542 page... not only was it not answered... but it has been deleted by someone in that page who has the authority to do so..


Specifically, how will the  NWT's "... strategic framework for the elimination of poverty..." eliminate this Income Assistance situation so that the GNWT's Income Assistance never again withholds food from any one of its citizens?...
How does this policy support and honour our CANADIAN CHARTER OF RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS?

".... sorry i know this is for housin issues but i am in a dilemna, i am so worried cause i got refused until aug 1 for income support, i did not get a cheque for june and i won't get one for july. i was out of food for 3 wks already, and bummin around. i don't know how i managed to get by. i just found out yesterday, so i just gave up hope. i didn't know what to do, i wanted to just cry and give up hope...what a hopeless situation i am in, but i KNOW I AM NOT ALONE, an THERE ARE OTHERS IN THIS SAME SITUALTION AS ME THIS MONTH. also i didn't have a chance to go out campin to get well needed fish and i still don't have some geese cause the weather was so bad.
part of the problem was that the Income support worker kept being away from her office for the months of march, an april, most of the time....
