Global Words of Encouragement to Manitobans (No.1)

Sep 23, 2013

This is the first in a series of quotations from global disability rights activists that we will featuring leading up to the Standing Committee hearing on Bill 26 scheduled for October 29.

My colleagues in Manitoba working in disability rights and the disability community inspire and encourage me everyday - thanks to social media! I encourage Manitoba to keep inspiring and leading the world in human rights and decency by having legislation addressing all seven elements set forth by Barrier-Free Manitoba. Human rights, barrier-free, accountable, and strong make for better communities for all of us.

Rev. Naomi King, Plantation, Florida, USA


The seven elements referred to were tabled by BFM in our May 24, 2012 brief: Stronger Measures Essential for Effective Legislation.
