Dear Gordon:

Wheelchair bound like her friend & colleague across the aisle, the Hon. Steven Fletcher, PC, MP, Conservative, Charleswood-St. James-Assiniboia & one of the greatest ever Presidents Of The United States (their XXXIInd), Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Democratic-New York: Manon Perreault, MP has to show that just b/c she has a disability doesn't mean that she doesn't have the "ability" to do her job. Here Manon talks about Rick Hansen & the XXVth Anniversary of his "Man In Motion" tour & how his Rick Hansen Foundation has done so much to help students & adults with disabilities adapt & live as normal lives as possible. Turning their medical condition from a disadvantage inII an advantage.

"Although his dream to make it a more inclusive & accessible world is not yet fully realized, Rick has greatly improved the situation of people with a disability with his attitude that "anything is possible."" 

Number CCXXIX (229),

Rory
