UCC Guaranteed Livable Income: Across the country, people are struggling to afford basic necessities. That’s why the United Church of Canada is calling on the federal government to create a Guaranteed Livable Income program. Since 1972, we have been persistently calling for a Guaranteed Livable Income. Today, real progress is being made. Proposals and national legislation are being discussed in Parliament and in some provinces. A Guaranteed Livable Income would help ensure that, regardless of employment status, no one’s income falls below the poverty line. This consistent income floor would reduce poverty, improve health outcomes, and give people the stability they need to thrive. CLICK HERE for the Moderator's video.
You can help make this change happen. We’ve made it easy to contact the Senate Committee who is reviewing Bill S-206 for the creation of a Guaranteed Livable Income program with just a few clicks. Add your voice today, CLICK HERE.

Prayers of the People: May 31 - June 6, 2026
