U Talk: Abilities Manitoba

In Manitoba, about one in six people has a disability of some sort. That's approximately 175,000 people. Of that number, about 8 thousand have an intellectual and developmental disability. Often accessibility isn't a priority in society, and accessibility challenges can be much worse the further you leave urban centres. To increase awareness for the upcoming provincial election, Abilities Manitoba and Barrier Free Manitoba have created Disability Matters Vote. https://www.dmvote.ca/
