The RNC has issued an arrest warrant for Ahmed Mohamed Shafik Abelfat Elgammal (36) wanted for abducting his daughter. This is an active and ongoing investigation and the RNC is using all available resources to locate and confirm the safety of the child.

Paddy, Dempsters pointing to accessible parking as @GovNL inclusion. It was my work as an advocate & a compliance order that FORCED movement of parking to where it is. It was NOTHING GOV did and Dempster is ill-informed as usual.

Parking. While the Avalon mall has full accessibility. There is NO on street accessible parking as none has a curb cutdown and are not required by @Govnl for ANY municipality to have them. The @liberal_party has failed in every aspect of inclusion and they should be (3)
Judged on what they haven't done including providing a Disability Advocate, fair access to funding by NGOs, it's currently distributed by favoritism not the need for core funding. The @PremierofNL and his lackeys lie about accessibility and that is a FACT. (4)

⚠️ The RNC is warning the public of the presence of carfentanil and methylfentanyl. This is the first time both drugs have been detected in NL. Their use may increase the risk of overdose and death.
If you suspect an overdose call 911 immediately.

the @PCoppositionNL were talking about accessibility for those with cognitive issues today in question period. Remember, minister Stoodley of @DGS_GovNL removed those persons from the definition of Disabilities so she's personally responsible for exclusion ahead.
@VOCMOpenline
I'd like to say I was surprised, but the @nlliberals didn't do anything that was asked of, or promised by them. The @PremierofNL lied in all capacities of accessibility and after 2 mandate letters requiring a Disability Advocate he permoted John Abbott for refusing to do it.
We'll have to see if the @PCPartyNL will correct all the out standing issues of Disabilities or if it's another term of same old same old. I'd love to see it in writing what the PCs will do but we'll have to wait till they win.
My days of supporting @nlliberals are long gone.

Still looking for volunteers for some evening shovelling for seniors and disabled residents who are trapped in their homes in Mount Pearl this evening. Starting at 6PM. 1.5 hrs work. The more the merrier. Beer at @landwashbrewery right after.
An interesting night, fantastic job by COD-NL making the event fully accessible. Some candidates struggled with reality, some not. 31% of NL over 15 have at least one disability. All the talk about more talk..lol. BAAB did the work @DGS_GovNL Stoodley ignored it.

31% of NL over 15 have at least ONE disability. That is a hard FACT. @DGS_GovNL Minister, @ 25% we have a 6% allocation for accessible parking. Don't you think it proper that you move it to 10% and include on street parking for once. It's owned by municipalities,
@VOCMOpenline
Incorporated companies that charge for access to their LINEAR parking lots that have ZERO accessibility regulations.
And that folks, is the only difference 🙄 a straight line VS square.
There are no curb cutdowns, no allocation, no van requirements NO maintenance for shoveling
Away the banks. Municipalities like to praise their attempts at accessibility but if we can get to it, we can't see it nor comment on it. It took 2yrs for @DGS_GovNL to ignore BAABs recommendations completely. The minister can't get parking right. It's time to move on from Libs.

While 25% of employees self-identify as having a disability, most companies report that just 4 to 7% of their employees are disabled.
With the real numbers, companies can build better policies to recruit, train and support disabled employees.

Did you know that 27% of Canadians over 15 have at least one disability, as of 2022? This is a 4.7% increase since 2017.
That is a total of 8 million people.
8 million reasons why diversity, equity and inclusion are paramount every day!
