Canada's next census will be conducted in May 2016.
Early in May, census packages will be delivered to households across
Canada, providing residents with the information they need to complete
their questionnaire online or on paper.
Completed questionnaires will provide valuable information that will
be used by all levels of government, businesses, associations,
community organisations and many others to make decisions about your
neighbourhood and community.
Information obtained through the census is needed to plan services
such as child care, schooling, family services, housing, public
transportation and skills training for employment.
Every person, young and old, must be included in the 2016 Census.
We hope you can support us in informing the community of the census

In this collection of poems and art, Driedger ruminates on the colour of living. It is red with excitement, pain, sunsets, blood and tropical flowers. Along the way, she paints herself into the works of Frida Kahlo, Viencent Van Gogh, Claude Monet and Maud Lewis. She confronts the body in two different contexts: Trinidad and Tobago Carnival and breast cancer treatment. Raised Mennonite, Driedger discusses issues around celebrating the body. In the second context, she reflects on the experience of undergoing cancer treatment and of being chronically ill.
Diane Driedger is a poet, writer, visual artist and educator. Her first poetry book, The Mennonite Madonna, was published in 1999. She is autho…

Barriers faced by people with disabilities seeking to enter the job market are numerous: physically inaccessible workplaces, employers' prejudices, l…
According to the United Nations, there are one billion people with disabilities in the world, more than half of which are women, making them the largest minority group on the planet. And yet this group remains one of the poorest and most vulnerable.
For close to 30 years, DAWN-RAFH Canada has responded to the needs of Canadian women with disabilities and Deaf women by advocating for their advancement and full economic and social inclusion.
However, vulnerability to violence and abuse remains one of the biggest challenges facing women with disabilities.
Studies have shown that 40% to 60% of women with disabilities will experience some form of violence in their lives. And women are less likely to report because they may not be aware of available service or may have trouble making c…
This year's forum was developed with an eye to supporting workers and anti-violence programs in enhancing their abilities to respond to women located in a variety of communities who are impacted by sexual and domestic violence.
The National Executive Director of DAWN-RAFH Canada, Bonnie Brayton will deliver a keynote address about the response needs of women living with disabilities who are victims of violence, a group who experience sexual assault at a rate at least twice that of the general population of women. Bonnie will be exploring the nature of abuse, barriers to disclosure and what DAWN-RAFH Canada is doing to combat this in communities across the country.
For more than 20 years, the Council of Canadians with Disabilities has worked to oppose the legalization of assisted suicide and euthanasia in Canada. Today, the disability rights-based opposition to life-ending practices faces major challenges; a new bill in parliament and a new law in Québec, two major court cases and strong media bias in favour of medical killing. How will we respond?
The Strategy and Planning Meeting will describe where we came from, what worked and what didn?t, and where we?re going to; from its beginning in the U.S. to how social media can make our message heard. A panel of experts will talk about the Canadian movement thus far, then interactive workshops will allow participants to brainstorm future strategies.

Alberta Health Services? decision to reduce the number of homecare service providers in Alberta from 72 to 13 in June 2013 disrupted the lives of hundreds of elderly and disabled Albertans, jeopardizing both their well-being and safety. It also threatened to set back the Independent Living Movement by circa 40 years, thus negating the life?s work of a generation of Canadians with disabilities who fought for the right to live independently in the community and direct their own homecare services.

Considérant que la Déclaration universelle des droits de l'homme, adoptée le 10 décembre 1948, est l'idéal commun que doivent atteindre tous les peuples et toutes les nations, l'Assemblée générale des Nations Unies a proclamé le 10 décembre Journée des droits de l'homme (résolution 423 (V) PDF du 4 décembre 1950).
L?année 2013 marque les vingt ans d?existence du Haut-Commissariat des Nations Unies aux droits de l?homme.
L?Assemblée générale des Nations Unies a créé le mandat du Haut Commissaire chargé de promouvoir et de protéger tous les droits de l?homme en décembre 1993. L?Assemblée générale donnait alors suite à une recommandation des délégués présents à la Conférence mondiale sur les droits de l?homme organisée à Vienne plus tôt la même année.

International Week of the Deaf is celebrated annually by deaf people worldwide during the last full week of September. 133 national associations of the deaf around the world organise events, marches, debates, campaigns and meetings to highlight speci?c human rights topics that merit attention by local and national governmental authorities, including decision makers, general public and media.
The global population of people aged 60 years and older will more than double, from 542 million in 1995 to about 1.2 billion in 2025. Around 4 to 6% of elderly people have experienced some form of maltreatment at home. Elder maltreatment can lead to serious physical injuries and long-term psychological consequences. The incidence of abuse towards older people is predicted to increase as many countries are experiencing rapidly ageing populations.
Elder abuse is a global social issue which affects the health and human rights of millions of older persons around the world, and an issue which deserves the attention of the international community.
The United Nations General Assembly, in its resolution 66/127, designated June 15 as World Elder Abuse Awareness Day. It represents the one day…
In 1993, Statistics Canada reported that one in two women will experience physical or sexual violence. In 2006, they reported that young people, especially girls, are at highest risk of sexual assault. But is this inevitable?
Violence begets violence, but we don't have to simply accept it as our future. When people come together with a common violence prevention goal, we can help change the course of history and stop violence against women and youth before it happens.
"Preventing More Histories of Violence" is our chance to help turn the tide of violence against women and youth. Join us at the City of Toronto Archives as we reflect on our past and envision a violence-free future in celebration of the 2013 May Be Me Campaign.

Better accessibility is about more than placing a few disabled parking spots near the door to the mall. More than sticking a wheelchair ramp at the side door of your restaurant. More than providing signs in Braille on elevator buttons.
True accessibility is about more than making a token effort. It requires us all to take a good, hard look at our homes, workplaces, public areas and infrastructure, and ask ourselves if they are truly open and welcoming to every Ontarian.
New Brunswick will observe Disability Awareness Week, May 26 to June 1. The theme this year is Disability Awareness Week ? Ready and Able to Work! Disability Awareness Week covers all types of disabilities and age groups.
"This annual campaign is an excellent opportunity to remind governments at all levels, employers, service providers and the public that many persons with disabilities still face barriers in their efforts to be included in all aspects of community life,? said Randy Dickinson, co-chair of Disability Awareness Week. ?We should celebrate the progress we have made toward inclusion while working hard to break down those barriers that still remain."

As part of the annual Daffodil Month activities, the Canadian Cancer Society has designated April 27, 2013 as Daffodil Day. This is a special day when Canadians can show their support for those living with cancer and to remember those who have died.
On this important day we encourage Canadians to do something special for those living with cancer or to contribute in some way to the fight against this disease. For example:
Tell a loved one or friend with cancer that you are thinking of them; let them know about the Society?s information and support programs.
Do something special for someone you know with cancer (for example, make a meal, do an errand, babysit).
Talk with your provincial or local politicians about the importance of fighting back against cancer and tell them how they ca…
