@macjbby @TELUS @Bell @Rogers @Quebecor @CRTCeng Yes, what a "chilling effect"

[World Federation of the Deaf @WFDeaf_org]

We celebrate the International Day of Persons with Disabilities alongside our partners in the international disability movement.
We also recognize deaf people with disabilities, who are important parts of inclusive #deaf communities.
"Nothing about us without" us is our motto.

Thank you for the Accessibility of the ASL interpreters and the CART services at the conference. @macjbby will be there Monday - Wednesday. @deaftravel will be joining from Tuesday to Wednesday. We look forward to seeing and meeting you all there!

The DWCC will be at the @CanadaTelecoms Summit tomorrow. The Acting Chair and the Past Chair are coming. The @DeafWirelessCAN appreciates the generosity and support the conference hosts have to invite groups that advocate for DDBHH Canadians with waived registrations.

Because I'm blind, an airline is saying I have to sit alone. We booked side-by-side seats. But when they found out I'm blind, they separated us. They're claiming it's their policy 1/7 #RightsOnFlights

Do you remember when you joined Twitter? We do!
Wow its been 8 years since @DeafWirelessCAN was established. #MyTwitterAnniversary

I inquired about a party package at a local theatre.

I learned that they only have 3 CaptiView devices.

3?

This means if I want to bring some deaf friends, they’ll have to share the devices together or go without.

This is why we need open captions so no one will be left out.

@fanCRTCProfling Does this mean what I think it means? It may not be too late for our group to submit to this proceeding? @macjbby

The Google Chrome extension that provides ASL Interpreting for movies on DisneyPlus and Netflix is called "SignUp Captions" and it's free. The interpreters are Deaf actors/entertainers. https://t.co/ae7YM0N7lJ

Lessons learned, always “trust the process.”

Yesterday was the last step in the long road toward justice for our Deaf son Carter when the Human Rights decision on the case of Carter Churchill vs. Newfoundland English School District was delivered. In his 116 pg decision, Chief Adjudicator Brodie Gallant acknowledged the 1/9
