Is autism considered a disability in Canada?
As a response, the Canadian government offers various disability benefits for people with autism (as well as other physical or mental disabilities). These disability tax refunds are safeguards for differently-abled Canadians to maintain their standard of living, alleviating any financial and emotional stress.
It's hard for the parents of kids with ASD, too: All they want is for their children to feel accepted and be happy. Through an amazing grassroots initiative that has captured the imagination of a whole town, Channel-Port aux Basques, Newfoundland, has become a place where that's not only possible but also normal.
