it takes a village: my thoughts on winning the Senate metal; or, why the attendant care program is essential

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone, and to also stress that I couldn't do anything without the amazing supports of liberal democracy. I could achieve very little without the people here work tirelessly to get me out of bed in the morning. We need to ensure that the Carleton attendant services program continues, long after I am gone, it strengthens, and reimagines, to meet common challenges. It is not "novelty" or of superfluous gesture of goodwill, on the part of the Ontario government; rather, it is an essential step in the actualization of the capabilities and dignity afforded to persons with disabilities by natural right. Please support this program and think about lobbying for programs similar to it at and other institutions, since this is the only of its kind in the world.I find this the most egregious in, and ethically deplorable. Also, please align with those of schoolwork to break down these systemic institutional barriers facing persons with disabilities, and that frankly exploitative practices t of some of the persons interested with assisting them (though this is by no means a majority)

My brother, who is as valiant as Gilgamesh.
