Take a few moments to hear Vicky Levack, disability rights activist from Nova Scotia, interviewed by Matt Galloway on CBC's The Current.
"I’m a full-fledged human being person who’s doing full-fledged human being things. Going to the grocery store - I felt so freakin’ normal and I was like 'this is the greatest thing in my life.'"

My own story with disability, particularly acknowledging and accepting it as representation of who I am, is only really at a beginning. After finally receiving a diagnosis for Autism and ADHD last year, I was made to feel validated and heard. It gave me the self understanding I needed. All my life, I knew I was different in some way. Now I've begun to understand how I can look after myself better.
To the people who have stuck by me, supported me & held me up when I couldn't, thank you. Your support has meant I can support others.
I wish the absolute best to all individuals & organisations who are 
finalists for 2022 ACT Chief Minister's Inclusion Awards.

Filmmaking is for everyone. Inclusion is everything.

I'm proud to share that I am a finalist for 2022 ACT Chief Minister's Inclusion Awards in 2 categories.

- Inclusion in Education and Training - @busstopfilms
#InclusiveFilmmaking is about ability & acceptance. It's about embracing a diversity of ideas and perspectives, not just in story, character or script, but also in a way the film's lighting, production design, camera movement and editing are all put together. It's about collaboration.

Today is International Days of Persons with Disabilities.

I want to give thanks to all the DPOs, advocacy groups and individuals, who engage on different issues online and in person.

We’re all working towards a more inclusive, disabled friendly society.
