We have long advocated for serving humans in the way they need to be served. This province institutionalizes ppl unnecessarily at an alarming number & now the unhoused are targeted. These are actual fucking humans. Not numbers or $$ #nspoli#halifax#dartmouth@TimHoustonNS
Pleased to welcome Nicole to her new job @hfxgov City Hall. Bonus for this avid @HFXMooseheads fan; we are right across the street from @ScotiabankCtr so she is close to the action! @eastersealsns
This room was powerful w/ passion & emotion yesterday. To stand & speak directly to the UN as many voices in how @nsgov is not complying w the UN’s definition of human rights despite endorsing the definition was bittersweet #nspoli@CBCNS@CTVAtlantic#ns#Halifax

Thank you @mcinnescooper for hosting our community meeting with the UN Special Rapporteur on Disability, and thanks @UWHalifax for connecting us. It was an extremely powerful meeting with intense and important stories heard. We hope this will lead to change.
This issue could happen to you. Anyone for example could get a brain injury- do you want to be institutionalized or live in the community? You may not get the choice #halifax#nspoli#novascotia#stopwarehousingpeople
Below is a news release from People First of Canada and People First of Nova Scotia regarding the Nova Scotia human rights hearing ruling that was made last week.
