A Melanie Minute: Accessibility and Canada's Winter Weather

Season 3, Episode 14A Melanie Minute: Accessibility and Canada’s Winter Weather Welcome to winter. Or, more specifically, welcome to the joys and challenges of Canada’s winter weather.For someone with a disability, winter challenges can be eventful. These include heavy snowfall and ice, sub-zero temperatures and even the winter blahs – the seasonal dreariness that so many people experience at least once during the winter.But there are joys as well, and in Canada we know how to embrace and even celebrate our coldest season of year.This Melanie Minute is all about those joys and challenges that we all experience during the winter, and how someone living with a disability experiences – or copes – with everything from icy sidewalks to participating socially and inclusively in the many outdoor winter activities available.A Melanie Minute is an exclusive feature of Connect 4 Life: The Podcast, which we produce regularly – or, pretty much whenever Connect 4 Life’s President & CEO, Melanie Taddeo, has something meaningful to share with our listeners.Similar to an audio blog, A Melanie Minute might actually be a minute in length, or it might be 8 or 10 minutes. Each segment focuses on a special message, an important issue of the day, or something Melanie feels is worth talking about and engaging listeners.
