OTTAWA - An organization advocating for people with disabilities says the new federal disability benefit could be delayed beyond the promised July 1 payment date because the government still hasn't approved the regulations.

March of Dimes Canada launched a campaign Friday urging Persons with Disabilities Minister Kamal Khera to act quickly to draft those regulations, adding the federal government could tarnish its legacy if it fails to act.
