STANDING-UP and SPEAKING OUT for SOCIAL JUSTICE in CANADA


Join me on July 14th, in Winnipeg, MB. as I stand-up, and speak-up, for social justice in Canada. A colleague of mine has said that social policy is homeless in Canada. And that needs to change! Millions of Canadians are unemployed, homeless, and living in poverty. More than one million Canadians living with disabilities are not in the labour force. Most of these people really do want to work and make a contribution to their communities. Employment is just one of the measurements of "inclusion" in Canadian society. While much has been accomplished over the last four decades, more still needs to be done! On July 14th, advocates will send that message to all 3 levels of government.
