Complex care/multiple barriers is when people with disabilities have higher rates of other illnesses such as cancer, heart disease, etc along with their original disabilities. Do you believe that these individuals are often made to feel ashamed for needing more care? #ED3610F19

#ED3610F19 Persons with IDs should be allowed to marry, enter into long-term relationships and have and raise their own children if they are capable of doing so. They have their rights like everyone else and if it is safe for these persons, then they should be allowed to.

#ED3610F19 I believe Robert Latimer was heartless and he did not deserve a more lenient sentence than 10 years for his hatred of killing his daughter with severe cerebral palsy. Do you agree or disagree with Robert Latimer? cbc.ca/news/canada/br…

@nlacl How do you feel about current practices used in schools to identify students as having intellectual disabilities? Should schools be using IQ testing? Or should they be using other measures of testing? Or a combination of both? #ED3610F19
