Landlords??? Next month they will announce that the poor of this province must be treated like animal!!! This will mean that they shouldn't complain to the Fire Marshall or if there's a fire Hazard?

They cannot complain because they will be evicted!!!

Disability Awareness Week (06/05/25)

FREDERICTON (CNB) - New Brunswick Human Rights Commission chair Gordon Porter issued this statement to mark Disability Awareness Week, May 28 - June 3:

"New Brunswickers who have a disability can enjoy full equality only when employers, landlords and service providers understand that it is not enough to treat everybody exactly the same if the end result nevertheless is that persons with disabilities are excluded or disadvantaged.

"Under the Human Rights Act, employers, landlords and service providers have a legal duty to eliminate the discriminatory effect of policies, practices, facilities and equipment if they can do so without undergoing undue hardship or sacrificing their legitimate objectives.

"For example, employers may need to modify job duties or provide specialized equipment so that an employee with a disability can stay on the job or return to work. Similarly, educational institutions need to provide the necessary staff and programs so that students with a physical or mental disability have equal access to educational opportunities.

"Discrimination complaints based on disability are the most common types of complaints received by human rights commissions today. That is why accommodation of disability is one of the key themes of the Canadian Association of Statutory Human Rights Agencies (CASHRA) 2006 national human rights conference that the New Brunswick Human Rights Commission and the Atlantic Human Rights Centre are hosting in Fredericton next month.

"Some of the top experts in Canada will be addressing accommodation of disability during the conference on June 15 and 16, as well as at a one-day practical workshop on June 14.

"I would like to invite the public to attend the conference and workshop. Complete information may be found at the CASHRA website.

"It is important to note that accommodation is not just a legal responsibility; it also makes good business sense. Studies have shown that accommodating people with disabilities benefits businesses through reduced turnover, recruitment and training costs, improved morale and an expanded recruitment pool. Most employers find accommodation is easy and inexpensive.

"The big picture is that people with disabilities have a lot to contribute to business and to society in general, and we cannot afford to let their contribution go to waste.

"During Disability Awareness Week, I invite New Brunswickers to consider what we can do to remove the barriers that people with disabilities face so that they can put their abilities to work."
