Résumé
A history of an Ontario grassroots disability rights movement, and their unfinished campaign to achieve a barrier-free province for persons with physical, mental and/or sensory disabilities, through the enactment of strong new legislation -- the Ontarians with Disabilities Act (ODA).… Also provides a thorough description of the legislation which this movement secured in 2001, why it ended up being so disappointing, and the ODA movement's strategies to get the legislation implemented from late 2001 to 2003. It concludes with a look to the future when the ODA movement will seek to get Ontario's new government, elected in October 2003, to substantially strengthen this legislation. 2003.
