Global Words of Encouragement to Manitobans (No.23)

Oct 22, 2013

We, the Nova Scotia Disability Strategy Partnership encourage the Manitoba Accessibility Advisory Council and the government of Manitoba to move forward boldly to create accessibility-rights legislation that will ensure leading-edge implementation of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. We support the key foundational elements for this legislation as outlined by Barrier-Free Manitoba. We look forward to drawing upon the experience of the province of Manitoba as we engage our provincial government in the creation of disability rights legislation in Nova Scotia.

Gail Bruhm, Halifax, Nova Scotia,
Nova Scotia Disability Strategy Partnership
