Guest guest Posted July 12, 2006 Report Posted July 12, 2006 Well, Once I left Canada, now in Mexico, for the first time in years, I am actually treated like I am a human being. I have access to services - health, etc., I can go out without getting treated like an animal, People in government offices don't laugh at me after they deliberately trigger anxiety attacks, people are not abusive, I have made friends. My disability is not used against me to deny me quality of life. In Canada, I was denied access to treatment (TRT) therapy - they laughed about that as an amusing concept. No-one here has changed any document or meedical record to reflect adverse effects as pre-existing conditions - falsifying my medical reports as Human Rights Commission in Canada did. Not one person here has said to me that if I have a disability, I am not welcome. The thought of ever having to return to Canada just makes me.. want to apply for refugee status here. That country's disaiblity practices are malignant. Before I left, I refused to sign the Census. Why? Because I am not a " Canadian " as defined by the Constitution. I am a person born in Canada who has a disability who should therefore be content to be homeless becuase I'm disabled- they are two absolutely separate things in diametric opposition to each other. I fled Canada. Anne Quote
