  • Summary

  • There’s been a lot more talk lately (in Canada, at least) about the disability community as a political unit. But what happens if your disabilities aren’t considered to be disabilities? Laura Brydges has spent years learning and teaching others about the needs of those with hidden disabilities. She joins us to talk about her journey with hidden disabilities, what politics can and cannot do for people with disabilities, and to share some poetry. Laura has a lot of wisdom to share about choosing happiness and living a full life with limitations. I really hope you enjoy spending time with her as much as I did. A quick editing note: During this conversation, Laura and I talk about a draft accessibility standard from Accessibility Standards Canada that is open for public consultation. That specific standard is the outdoor spaces standard. You can find more information about that standard here: https://accessible.canada.ca/. The deadline for public feedback is August 11. Learn more about Laura’s work and the resources she’s developed here: https://hdscanada.wordpress.com/
