Hello Everyone,
I am proud and honored to share that I had the opportunity to speak with Canadian Senator Honorable Chantal Petitclerc in this profound and authentic interview. Senator Petitclerc discusses her journey as a para athlete, where she was asked to represent Canada. From there, she pursued a degree in humanities and then in history. Later, in the spring of 2016, she was asked to represent all Canadians and people with disabilities in the Senate.
My highlight of this podcast conversation is when Chantal begins talking about the Accessible Canada Act, https://www.canada.ca/en/employment-social-dev elopment/programs/accessible-canada/act-summary.html
one of the biggest pieces of legislation that protects the rights of people with disabilities in Canada!
I also really appreciated Chantal’s response to the last question, What do think makes a Mighty Person?
I hope everyone finds this podcast episode uplifting, delightful, encouraging, and finally resourceful. Finally I would like to thank my parents, my mentor Marco Pasqua, Dan Coulter, and MLA Brittny Anderson for supporting my aspirations and for coaching me to become more confident in my interviews!
