Stuff is Happening and You Should Know About It
We’ve got a few things to share with y'all.
Tomorrow – January 30th – the Canadian Association of Community Living and the Council of Canadians with Disabilities is hosting End of Life, Equality, and Disability: A national forum on Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD). The in-person session is sold out, but you can attend by livestream. Sign up at: https://freeman.streamme.ca/cac-ccd2020
Hey there Canadian disability-related organizations / Salut, organisations canadiennes liées aux personnes handicapées
We know that presenting issues shared among people with disabilities can influence the position of each political party. After all, together we represent about 22% of Canada's population. So, a combined effort could go a long way. In order to understand issues central to your communities, we invite you to send us two questions your organization would like to ask each political party.
Join Us in Creating an Accessible Canada

But now what are we all going to do? How do we ensure that people with disabilities continue to have a say in creating an accessible Canada?
