Forms, lies, and advocacy [3]

I read your recent editorial [BCMJ 2014;56:213 [3]] with considerable interest because your experience has been almost identical with mine.
It seems to me that for those people who are truly disabled the disability pensions provided by the federal or provincial government are woefully inadequate. However, at the same time, there are clearly far too many people being awarded disability pensions on the basis of dubious evidence.
I always enjoy reading the editorials in the BC Medical Journaland look forward with interest as to what correspondence your most recent offering may stimulate.
