Message from the Chairperson

Image on this page in the original Annual Report is a picture of Douglas Waxman, the Chairperson of ARCH Disability Law Centre. 
This has been both a challenging and productive year for ARCH, given the ongoing pandemic.
Despite working off-site, ARCH has made significant accomplishments. In addition to providing legal services in the clinic’s usual practice areas, ARCH has managed to respond to the unprecedented increased demand presented by the pandemic.

ARCH has shaped the law in respect to the discriminatory exclusion of visitors in congregate housing, with a significant victory at the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal, which found in the circumstances visitors to be a reasonable accommodation. ARCH has made significant representations on the discriminatory aspects of the proposed triage protocol and the proposed suspension of the health treatment consent law.
In addition, ARCH has maintained its important work in its other areas of service. Highlights include ARCH’s continued work to promote the implementation of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and ARCH continues to advocate for changes to the Medical Assisted Dying law. In addition, ARCH continues its other law reform and public legal education work. In fact, we believe this has been the busiest year ever.
I, on behalf of the Board of Directors, salute all of our staff for their significant accomplishments in challenging circumstances. We recognize their resilience, flexibility and professionalism.
It is to the credit of our management team that they have fostered a work culture that is both caring and productive even in these enduring difficult times. Particularly, I want to acknowledge our Executive Director, Robert Lattanzio for all he does, from legal quality control and oversight, mentoring, assuring operations and systems, personnel and staffing, budgeting, stakeholder, board and funder relations, and representing ARCH’s interests on various committees. Rob manages to do all this in a thoughtful and effective manner, while maintaining his good nature.
ARCH’s Board has also had a productive year. Despite meeting remotely, we maintained a regular schedule of Board meetings and committee meetings. Our working group continues to advise the Board on how to make our practices more sensitive to Indigenous cultures. Our annual Staff-Board planning day was dedicated to restorative justice and the significance of land acknowledgments.
These learnings will no doubt inform ARCH’s client practices and the Board’s efforts towards reconciliation.

A strategic objective in our Strategic Plan 2018-2023, was to update the Board’s governance structure. We initiated changes to our standing committee structure in 2019. Another piece of the updating was that the Executive Committee be a more active committee than in the past. The reactivation over the last year and a half has been quite evident. The Executive Committee has met, this year multiple times both in regularly scheduled bimonthly meetings and in ad hoc meetings to deal with specific pressing matters. As well, the Executive has met by email to reach consensus on requests for cases requiring financial eligibility exemption approvals multiple times this year.

Another strategic goal is the advancement of board development, leadership and succession planning. In an effort to meet this objective, committees have appointed vice-chairs, provided opportunities for vice-chairs to lead meetings and provide reporting to the Board, etc. Similarly, at the executive committee level, we have recently commenced providing opportunities for executive members to chair board meetings.

The Board continues, from time to time, to assess our governance practices. In this light, we have undertaken to consider potential additional fundraising capabilities, beyond our usual fundraising efforts. As a starting point and a way to frame the issues, the board invited a fundraising consultant as a guest speaker to address a board meeting. Subsequently, the Finance Committee has been charged with considering the potential return on investment of potential fundraising avenues.

The Board has also been engaged in monitoring Legal Aid Ontario’s “Modernization” project. As Legal Aid Ontario continues to respond to the passing of a new law, and develop new rules that set out how legal clinics must operate and how they will get funded, ARCH’s Board and Executive Director have made a number of joint submissions to attempt to convey how these changes may detrimentally impact our communities.

I am privileged to serve on the Board with fourteen other exceptionally dedicated volunteers, who in addition to representing the disability community, lend the organization countless amounts of time, energy and expertise, their dedication to ARCH and commitment to social justice and without whom the governance of the organization could not happen. I am indebted to all of you, as I continually learn from your perspectives. I would like to acknowledge and thank Susan Docherty-Skippen, who left the Board earlier this year due to conflicting work commitments. Susan joined the board on 
October 1, 2018 and served on the By-Law and Policies Committee and chaired the Working Group on Membership and Community Partners.

As always, we appreciate and acknowledge Legal Aid Ontario, our principal funder, who make it financially possible for ARCH to continue to advance the rights of persons with disabilities in
Ontario.

Message from the Executive Director

Image on this page in the original Annual Report is a picture of Robert Lattanzio, the Executive Director of ARCH Disability Law Centre. 
On behalf of the Board of Directors and Staff of ARCH Disability Law Centre, it is my honour to report to our membership select highlights of ARCH’s work and achievements for the period of September 1, 2020 to August 31, 2021.

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues its unrelenting impacts on our communities, ARCH continues to strive for excellence in its service delivery to persons with disabilities across Ontario and maintains its focus on systems, and removing the ableist barriers that those systems create. While still working remotely to ensure the safety of all, ARCH has provided leadership and support to disability communities across Ontario and also contributed on the national and international stage.
As our communities continue to face the loss, isolation, discrimination and disproportionate impacts that this pandemic has acutely exacerbated, ARCH working alongside community partners remains committed to fighting for social justice and inclusion, and has engaged in many and varied issues over the year.
The increased volume of work over the past year that ARCH has taken on has been significant, but it’s the breadth and range of activities and the immediate, complex, and responsive nature of the work that has been the true test for our team. I wish to thank our dedicated and passionate staff team for their tireless commitment toward our mission during these difficult times. As a small staff team, everyone’s contribution is vital and we could not be as effective in our advocacy without it. During the year, we unfortunately said goodbye to one of our staff lawyers, Hina Ghaus, who left to pursue other challenges and we thank her for all her contributions.

Over the past year, we all witnessed the unearthing of unmarked graves across Canada of children held in residential schools; an ongoing reminder of the horrific and genocidal legacy and the ongoing trauma and loss that is still felt today. ARCH remains in solidarity and continues its work toward listening, building relationships, and contributing to reconciliation.

Our Board of Directors ensure that ARCH continues to be a healthy organization. They volunteer countless hours to ensure good governance and offer continued support, while offering their time, skills and insight in matters that can be significantly challenging. In particular, I wish to thank our Chairperson, Douglas Waxman for his ongoing dedicated leadership, and to the Chairs of each of our standing committees and working group for their leadership and commitment. I also wish to thank Susan Docherty-Skippen, who left the Board earlier this year due to other commitments.

Lastly, and with great gratitude, I wish to thank our funders and donors without whom we would not be able to do what we do. We sincerely thank our primary funder, Legal Aid Ontario, for its continued support of our work. Legal Aid Ontario’s support is critical in ensuring that we can continue to serve our most vulnerable members of our communities. I wish to acknowledge and extend my gratitude to all of our other funders listed in this report, our students, volunteers, donors, our membership and community partners, stakeholders and supporters.

Sincerely,

Representing Persons with Disabilities
throughout Ontario
ARCH provides direct legal services to persons with disabilities across Ontario. During this reporting period, ARCH provided a range of legal services in over 1,450 matters, including the provision of summary legal advice, limited retainer cases, and test cases. ARCH opened over 682 cases assisting people with disabilities in Ontario in a variety of legal issues including human rights law, capacity and decision making rights, attendant services, education law, accommodation in employment, accessibility laws, transportation, access to services and others. Advancing test cases is one important way for ARCH to pursue systemic change.

Cases that raise important access to justice issues before the Supreme Court of Canada

R v Slatter: ARCH, in coalition with the Women’s Legal Education and Action Fund (LEAF) and DisAbled Women’s Network Canada (DAWN Canada), intervened in the appeal of R v Slatter, a sexual assault case heard by the Supreme Court of Canada. ARCH and Susan Fraser co-counselled on this matter, representing the Coalition. This case involved a woman labelled with an intellectual disability who disclosed sexual assault. At trial, defence counsel argued that her evidence was unreliable, because her disability made her suggestible. Nevertheless, the trial judge convicted the accused of sexual assault. The majority of the Ontario Court of Appeal overturned the conviction and ordered a new trial, finding the trial judge’s reasons were not sufficient. In particular, the majority held that that the trial judge failed to address what they found to be a central issue: the complainant’s reliability and suggestibility. LEAF-DAWN-ARCH’s intervention was successful in providing the Supreme Court with an intersectional equality analysis highlighting the implications of the case on the substantive equality rights of women labelled with intellectual disabilities, and on their access to justice. The Supreme Court unanimously allowed the appeal rendering its decision immediately following the hearing after a short deliberation. The Court’s reasons directly underscored and reflected the arguments advanced by ARCH and the Coalition.

The Supreme Court emphasized that judges must be careful not to follow expert evidence that relies on generalizations. Rather, courts should look to the individual characteristics of the complainant when weighing their reliability and creditability and be careful not to allow stereotypes to play a role.

Attorney General of British Columbia v. Council of Canadians with Disabilities: ARCH is representing a coalition of 6 (including ARCH) specialty legal clinics before the Supreme Court of Canada in a matter that raises the public interest standing test. This is a case arising from litigation in British Columbia involving the Council of Canadians with Disabilities (CCD). The CCD has attempted to challenge B.C. mental health legislation, in particular arguing that the non-consensual psychiatric treatment permitted within that legislative framework infringes sections 7 & 15 of the Charter. The matter before the Supreme Court is whether the lower courts properly applied the test to decide whether the CCD could properly advance the litigation as a public interest litigant. ARCH successfully sought leave to intervene on behalf of the Coalition. The matter has not yet been heard.

Positive Decision about Human Rights During the Pandemic
ARCH received a positive decision from the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario regarding the case of JL v Empower Simcoe. The case is the first COVID-related decision from the Tribunal and finds that the service provider’s visitor restriction policy was discriminatory.
JL is a 15 year old boy residing in one of the Respondent’s group homes. He has a communications disability, which for him means that he does not use words to communicate. Instead, he uses touch, hugging, pulling on hands, gestures and other physical displays of expression. During the pandemic, Empower Simcoe insisted that physical distancing was mandatory for any in-person visits, no exceptions. This meant that JL was not able to communicate with his family in a manner that was appropriate for his disability-related needs.
Represented by ARCH, he filed an application at the Tribunal alleging that Empower Simcoe’s visitor restriction policy was discriminatory.
The Tribunal found that Empower Simcoe failed to explore ways to accommodate JL, and that it failed to establish that accommodating his disability-related needs would amount to undue hardship. The Tribunal found that human rights “do not go away in a pandemic” and that service providers are still obligated to fulfill their accommodation obligations. Empower Simcoe was ordered to pay damages and to implement an accommodation policy for pandemic visitor restrictions.
The Tribunal denied Empower Simcoe’s request for reconsideration of the decision. Empower Simcoe is currently pursuing an application for judicial review.

COVID-19 masking requirements and disability related accommodations
ARCH represented a person who was unable to wear a mask due to disability related reasons. The main legal issue raised was how much information must be provided by a person with a disability in order to be exempt from wearing a mask when accessing a retail outlet. The Respondent wanted our client to provide additional proof of his disability. Our client had advised the Respondent of his disability and related needs, but despite this the store still wanted a medical letter to prove that our client had the disability in question.
ARCH argued that this request was discriminatory, and in addition, went against the mask exemption laws in Ontario at the time. ARCH filed a complaint to the Canadian Human Rights Commission on behalf of our client.
The matter settled with both personal remedies and changes to the policy to ensure that persons with disabilities would be taken at their word if they advised that they were unable to wear a mask due to disability while continuing to create safe spaces for all.

Defending Disability Rights during the COVID-19 Pandemic
ARCH represented an individual who resides at a group home. The group home threatened to terminate his services and evict him. The case raised interesting issues about the application of the Residential Tenancy Act protections to group home residents. ARCH advocated that any termination of services and eviction be halted because of the RTA protections and because of the government order suspending residential evictions. In response, the group home rescinded the eviction decision.

Access to COVID-19 Vaccines
ARCH represented numerous individuals with disabilities during the early phases of vaccine distribution who were denied or experienced barriers to receiving vaccines. This work also helped us identify trends and barriers in each of the public health units. We were successful in getting our clients vaccines and also contributed to systemic changes in some of the practices and approaches of the public health authorities. ARCH also worked with a number of groups and released statements, offered advocacy support and assistance.
In partnership with Independent Living Canada, a national survey was released to gather needed data regarding the barriers to accessing vaccines for persons with disabilities. The final report will be released shortly.

Access to Healthcare
Throughout the pandemic, many persons with disabilities were denied access to critical supports such as communication accommodations while attempting to receive needed healthcare. ARCH worked on numerous cases about hospital decisions to deny access to essential supports to patients with disabilities. ARCH worked tirelessly to ensure that our clients had access to needed support in order for them to access healthcare, where in some cases included critical and life-saving treatment.

Accommodations to participate in administrative processes
ARCH represented two complainants in cases before the Canadian Human Rights Commission and the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal about an administrative body’s failure to provide disability-related accommodations during a hearing process. As previously reported, ARCH was successful in getting the cases referred to the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal. The cases raise important issues about the obligations of Tribunals and administrative bodies under human rights law to ensure that persons with disabilities have full and equal access to public hearings. The cases have since settled with both individual and systemic remedies.

Access to para-transit
ARCH is representing the applicant in a judicial review application at Divisional Court in a matter regarding para-transit. Our client was no longer found eligible for door to door specialized para-transit services, due in part to the service provider’s transition to a Family of Service model. This case raises issues about accessibility of transit services, and inclusion in the community. ARCH expects the case to be heard next year.

Post-Secondary Education
ARCH represented the applicant, a post-secondary student with a disability who was being charged tuition for disability-related extensions, at the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario. Following months of negotiation, a settlement was agreed to by both parties.

Denial of service animal
ARCH assisted a consumer of attendant services in ensuring that they could have their service animal while receiving attendant services. The client was consistently denied this right, and requested assistance for an appeal of the decision. ARCH assisted with the written appeal, which was successful.

Challenging wrongful termination of vital services
ARCH was retained by someone whose services were terminated from a city funded homemaking and nursing program. Our client’s termination was based on the fact that another agency located in her building could provide services similar to that of the city’s program. However, it was determined by our client and her doctors that the way this alternative agency provides their services conflicts with our client’s disability related needs. ARCH argued that by terminating services, the city was breaking a promise of inferred eligibility based on the city’s conduct. We were successful in our internal appeal with the city and our client’s services reinstated.

Privacy Rights for persons with disabilities
Commercial Spring and Tool Company Limited v Barrie Welding & Machine (1974) Inc.: ARCH represented the Ontario Network of Injured Workers’ Groups (ONIWG) as an intervener in the Appeal of Commercial Spring and Tool Company Limited v Barrie Welding & Machine (1974) Inc., before the Ontario Superior Court. At issue was the privacy and access to personnel files of an employee with an addictions disabilities. The case raised important issues about the privacy interests and human rights of workers with disabilities, especially for those who are non-parties to the action. The Court found that privacy is a factor that the court may consider in assessing proportionality for document disclosure in litigation.

The issue arose in the context of a commercial dispute between two companies. The plaintiff company alleged, among other claims, that the defendant company was negligent in the repair of a piece of machinery. As part of the claim, the plaintiff alleged that one of the defendant’s employees, who was known to have an addictions disability, was at least in part responsible for the negligence. Despite the employee not being a party to the litigation, the plaintiff company sought disclosure of that employee’s employment record, which may have included documentation about his disability. After the judge dismissed the request for disclosure, the plaintiff appealed.

The Court dismissed the appeal, confirming that the employee’s employment record did not need to be disclosed. Quoting from ONIWG’s intervener submissions, the Court stated “… workers with disabilities have the right to full participation in the workplace on an equal basis to others and should not be targeted on the basis of their disability. Being identified in litigation and targeted for the production of his employee file, on the basis of his disability and without evidence of particular incident, cannot be said to be equal basis.”

Accessing insurance funded treatment
Aviva Insurance Company of Canada v Danay Suarez: If someone is in a car accident in Ontario, the Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule (SABS) works to make sure the reasonable and necessary costs of treatment plans are reimbursed.
DS was in a car accident in 2013, and submitted treatment plans to her insurance company, Aviva, for their approval before going ahead with the treatment and incurring the costs. Aviva did not approve two treatment plans because they did not think they were reasonable or necessary. On appeal, the License Appeal Tribunal (LAT) decided that the treatment plans were reasonable and necessary and ordered Aviva to pay the costs of the treatment plans once DS incurred them.
Aviva appealed to Divisional Court on the grounds that the LAT could not order Aviva to pay treatment costs unless they had been incurred at the time of the original hearing. In other words, if DS did not incur the costs of the treatment before the LAT hearing, Aviva did not have to reimburse her.
Citizens With Disabilities Ontario (CWDO) and the Health Justice Program (HJP) intervened in this case to bring the perspective of low-income persons with disabilities to the Court’s attention.
The Court held that the LAT was entitled to find that a treatment plan was reasonable and necessary and order that a benefit was payable once it was incurred. The Court stated that the goal of the legislation is to reduce the economic hardship of motor vehicle accident victims. Therefore, having to pay for treatment before a decision that the treatment is reasonable and necessary would be limited to persons who could afford to pay those costs upfront. The Court adopted CWDO and HJP submissions that there is a power imbalance between low-income persons with disabilities and their insurers. To accept the insurer’s argument would deny an effective remedy to motor vehicle claimants.
CWDO and HJP, in coalition, were represented by ARCH and private bar co-counsel Karen Spector.

Working with our Communities
ARCH’s law reform and policy activities ensure that the disability perspective is considered in the development and revision of laws and policies. ARCH often consults with other disability rights groups, members of our communities, and other specialty and community legal clinics to analyze and comment on the impact of current and proposed laws.

Medical Assistance in Dying

In March 2021, amendments to Medical Assistance in Dying legislation became law. ARCH convened a series of meetings for persons with disabilities and disability communities and provided legal information and advice about how communities could raise their concerns within international legal forums.

ARCH was retained by a coalition of 15 disability organizations, disabled persons organizations and grassroots disability rights advocates to address their concerns with Canada's new Medical Assistance in Dying law at the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights. This case is about the right to life and the right to equality in international law, and the coalition's assertion that Canada's Medical
Assistance in Dying law violates those rights.

Supporting Communities to Provide Input to New Federal Accessibility Regulations
The Government of Canada, the Canadian Transportation Agency and the CRTC each released its own draft accessibility regulations. These regulations fall under the Accessible Canada Act. They are intended to help make federal government, businesses and organizations more accessible for persons with disabilities. ARCH held a series of meetings for persons with disabilities to provide information about each of these draft accessibility regulations, share our concerns about the regulations, and gather feedback from communities. ARCH also prepared written materials to support persons with disabilities to participate in consultations about the draft regulations. ARCH sent written submission to the Government of Canada, the Canadian Transportation Agency and the CRTC making recommendations to strengthen the draft regulations.	22

Access to critical care in hospitals during the pandemic
ARCH continued its work on ensuring that if hospital critical care units across
Ontario became too overwhelmed to provide critical care to everyone who needs it, that any guidelines or protocols put in place to decide who receives priority for critical care would not be discriminatory. Following our work in spring and summer of 2020, which included the release of an open letter signed by 4828 individuals and  204 organizations/groups, ARCH continued to work with stakeholders to ensure that any documents that the government would rely on would not have the effect of discriminating against persons with disabilities. On December 3rd, as part of the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, ARCH and the AODA Alliance released a second open letter regarding Ontario’s Critical Care Triage Protocol demanding transparency and a copy of the report from the Bio-Ethics Table. ARCH also launched a letter writing campaign.
ARCH released a number of statements and has been quoted    by numerous media, and in podcasts. In particular, ARCH’s Advisory Committee on the Triage Protocol also released a statement, and released a number of outreach and advocacy tools.
With our partners, and hosted by Community Living Ontario, we delivered a webinar that garnered some attention, and although put together within days, we had almost 500 people registered. ARCH also developed a fact sheet available on our website. All materials, submissions, and information are available on ARCH’s website.

We are grateful to our Advisory Committee for sharing their   expertise, insight, support and commitment:

Do the Rights Thing
In partnership with DAWN Canada, ARCH led a 2-phased project called Do the Rights Thing about developing and implementing a system-level response to address systemic barriers to services and employment faced by women with disabilities and Deaf women. In phase 1, ARCH invited women with disabilities and Deaf women to attend focus groups and fill out questionnaires and participate in key informant interviews, to learn about the barriers they face when seeking and maintaining employment. ARCH completed its obligations and deliverables regarding its partnership with DAWN Canada for this project.
Image on this page in the original Annual Report shows the Do the Rights Thing logo. 

Inclusion without Assimilation
ARCH was asked to assist and entered into an agreement with the Native Women's Association of Canada (NWAC) to peer review, assist and provide feedback on
NWAC’s final report for a project they are completing called Inclusion without Assimilation.

Reforming Education in Ontario

ARCH co-authored a Paper titled “A Relic of the Past: Identification, Placement and Review Committees in Ontario’s Education System” published in the Canadian Journal of Educational Administration and Policy, which examines the outdated framework of the IPRC that continues to exist in Ontario which creates ongoing barriers for students with disabilities in accessing inclusive education. The article makes the case for needed reform to the IPRC framework in Ontario. The link to the article is here: https://journalhosting.ucalgary.ca/index.php/cjeap/article/view/69850 

Inclusive Investing

The Canadian Centre for Elder Law and the British Columbia Law Institute conducted an extensive study to identify best practices for advancing supported decision-making in the financial services sector. This significant project concluded with the release of a final report titled: CCEL Study Paper on Inclusive Investing: Respecting the Rights of Vulnerable Investors through Supported Decision-Making.

ARCH supported this project in a number of ways, including as a member of the project advisory committee.

Image on this page in the original Annual Report shows a picture of the front cover of the CCEL Study Paper on Inclusive Investing.

Health Justice Program

ARCH continues to be a partner in the Health Justice Program, a partnership of legal clinics and health service providers at St. Michael’s Hospital, Family Health Team. Neighbourhood Legal Services is the lead legal clinic on this project. ARCH led the creation of this initiative and the first 3 years of  its operations.

CNIB Know Your Rights

ARCH lawyers participated in three episodes of CNIB’s Know Your Rights podcast series. The episodes respectively provided legal information about transportation, education, and the built environment directly focused on communities' specific needs.

Respecting Rights
Respecting Rights is a project at ARCH that is led by self advocates labelled with intellectual disabilities. Since 2011, Respecting Rights works on accessible law reform projects and provides accessible rights education to persons labelled with intellectual disabilities and their support networks across Ontario.

Over the course of the pandemic, Respecting Rights continued to advocate for the rights of persons labelled with intellectual disability, a community that experienced continued isolation as government policies continued to exclude persons with disabilities from having a say in how they received services during Covid-19.
Respecting Rights continued to educate virtually on issues of digital access for persons with intellectual disabilities, and shared the message of the Get Connected Campaign, at an international digital accessibility conference called Bridging the Digital Divide, September 2020.

Respecting Rights makes Statement on Deinstitutionalization at the United Nations
Respecting Rights made a written statement and sent an accessible video to the United Nations during its consultation on deinstitutionalization for persons with disabilities. Respecting Rights emphasized that deinstitutionalization is not only about closing large institutions. It must mean that people with disabilities have real choices about where they live, who they live with, and how they live their lives. People with disabilities must be involved when governments make   deinstitutionalization policies.

Image on this page in the original Annual Report shows the Respecting Rights logo. 

Ongoing Virtual Workshops – Digital Access
Digital access for the intellectual disability community is a bittersweet issue. While so many self-advocates continue to be isolated without digital access, Respecting Rights has connected with new members across Ontario for whom virtual platforms are accessible. We continued to meet virtually and brought on a MSW student to assist with delivering virtual workshops across Toronto in the first half of 2021, to build a strong Toronto chapter of self-advocates. This project is called Respecting Rights-Toronto, and we are pleased to be continuing to build this capacity among self-advocates, thanks to the City of Toronto’s funding. We gained new members out of the virtual workshops who have joined the fold helping deliver workshops virtually. Reena, Community Living Toronto and the Miles Nadal Jewish Community Centre participated in the Respecting Rights-Toronto winter virtual workshops. We of course are excited to eventually be offering these in person, when it is safe with Covid-19 protocols. We hope that Respecting Rights-Toronto is only the beginning, with the hope of having similar projects across the Province!

5 Things:  Respecting Rights Campaign on Ministry of Children, Community and Social Services (MCSS) Developmental Services Reform

Respecting Rights learned in December 2020 that MCCSS was inviting feedback about reforms they were launching - within a short window, using a survey that was not accessible for many persons labelled with developmental disabilities who use developmental services. Respecting Rights gathered persons labelled with intellectual disabilities together online across Ontario to write a response to MCCSS about these reforms. Respecting Rights identified 5 key issues and wrote to MCCSS, ultimately achieving a meeting with MCCSS leadership, and forging some new relationships for advocacy within MCCSS. The work continues. 

Images on this page in the original Annual Report have an image of the 5 Things to Make Developmental Services Better poster and 2 pictures of Zoom meetings. One picture is of Respecting rights meeting with self-advocates across Ontario; gathering thoughts from self-advocates on the MCCSS Developmental services transformation. The other picture is of Peter Park giving mentorship advice for Respecting Rights with Sue over Zoom.

 

Accessible Land Acknowledgement
Respecting Rights is in the process of creating a land acknowledgement that is accessible for persons labelled with intellectual disability.
Respecting Rights self-advocates have been in discussions with Community Living Six Nations to talk about what kind of land acknowledgement would be meaningful. The pains of residential school survivors and the discovery of unmarked graves resonates deeply with institutional survivors, and Respecting Rights has been having much deep discussion on this topic.

Time for Change Rights Music Video – and April Series
Respecting Rights also received funding from the Ministry of Children, Community and Social Services to offer a month of virtual workshops for self-advocates across Ontario in April. One of the positive outcomes of this April series, was the creation of a music video about human rights – created by Respecting Rights self-advocates. This video, titled TIME FOR CHANGE features the voices of 23 self- advocates from across Ontario- speaking out what human rights means to them. The video has an accompanying discussion guide with questions for reflection after watching the video. Monday October 18 is the official release date. You can find the video and accompanying discussion guide on the Respecting Rights page on the ARCH website.

Accessible Rights Education
ARCH continues to promote awareness and education on disability rights, by offering presentations, workshops and seminars, as well as developing a wide range of resources with its partners.

ARCH Alert
ARCH Alert is ARCH’s free quarterly newsletter. It provides timely information on legislation developments, significant court decisions, government consultations, community initiatives, and other disability-related legal issues. ARCH Alert has over 4,000 subscribers who receive the newsletter directly. It is also available on our website for anyone to access.

Factsheets, Guides and Toolkits
ARCH frequently publishes concise learning and reference materials that are often developed with our partners in 3 distinct formats. Factsheets provide concise information on particular issues identified by the community. Guides provide more extensive information on a topic. Toolkits provide the necessary resources to support persons with disabilities to advocate for their rights.
These resources are available at www.archdisabilitylaw.ca/resources  and can also be provided in alternate formats.

Images on this page in the original Annual Report show a picture of 3 ARCH Alert issues and many Factsheets, Guides and Toolkits. 

ARCH Library and Resource Centre
In its endeavor to make as much disability and legal information available to the public as possible, ARCH continuously adds and updates resources available in the ARCH Library. ARCH Library’s online catalogue is available on our website. Items that are not available electronically can be accessed in the Resource Centre at 55 University, 15th floor. ARCH also provides computers with assistive technology for general use.

National AccessAbility Week
ARCH co-hosted our annual National AccessAbility Week event with the Law Society of Ontario on June 3rd. Over 900 people registered for the event and it was well attended. The session this year consisted of 2 panels of ARCH lawyers discussing the impact of the pandemic on the accessible practice of law, both from a litigation and law reform perspective. This was one of numerous activities that ARCH was involved in to celebrate the National AccessAbility Week.

Disability Law Intensive (DLI) Program
ARCH continues its exciting partnership with Osgoode Hall Law School at York University to offer a program that is the first of its kind in Canada. Twelve students are participating in the 2021- 2022 Disability Law Intensive at ARCH.

Advancing the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities
ARCH continues its work in advancing the rights framework set out in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.

ARCH hosted a community meeting on June 22 to begin our collective work on the Parallel (or Shadow) Report to the UN CRPD Committee. This report is part of the UN CRPD Committee's second review of Canada's implementation of the CRPD. Since then, we have asked interested groups to identify the role they wish to take on as it relates to the substantive articles of the CRPD.

ARCH continues its role, as contracted by BCANDS, to co-lead the Stream 3 project work which relates to Canada’s review by the UN Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. A series of workshops was held about the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, the UN's review of Canada, and opportunities for disability communities to participate in this review. Through these workshops and outreach efforts, a larger number of disabled persons organizations and disability organizations, in particular from Quebec, are participating in the UN's review of Canada.

OP Lab: Learning, Sharing, Actioning!

OP Lab was a project led by ARCH which aimed to develop awareness of the CRPD, its Optional Protocol and other UN disability rights tools. It also aimed to
build capacity within disability and legal communities to use the CRPD and other UN disability rights tools to advance disability rights in Canada. ARCH completed all OP Lab live sessions – 8 for community advocates, 3 for lawyers, and 1 joint session for both. OP Lab had approximately 180 community champions registered from across Canada, and approximately 50 disability rights lawyers from across Canada. The aim for the live sessions and the virtual classroom platform was to create space for advocates and lawyers to work through together the various tools available including the CRPD’s Optional Protocol in a cross-disability accessible space in multiple languages (French, English, American Sign Language, Langue des signes Quebecoise). ARCH is grateful to our funder for this project Employment and Social Development Canada through the Social Development Partnerships Program (Disability Component).

Meaningful Participation of Persons with Disabilities in Regulation 
Making

The focus of this project was on meaningful participation of persons with disabilities in the development of regulations pursuant to the Accessible Canada Act. We know that the current processes for developing regulation requires consultation but existing processes are not satisfactory – both from government perspective and disability communities’ perspective.

ARCH completed extensive legal research and partnered with a research team at McGill University to conduct qualitative and quantitative research of the experiences of persons with disabilities in regulation consultations.
Based on our legal analysis, review of the experiences with accessibility legislation in other Canadian jurisdictions, and results of research about experiences from disability communities, we have: identified a number of key barriers that prevent meaningful participation; identified a number of principles that must be in place to guide meaningful participation; and worked on developing recommendations to implement those principles and address identified barriers.

ARCH released to the public its final project report. This report presents research findings about barriers that prevent persons with disabilities from participating in processes to develop new regulations. The report analyzes these barriers in the context of legal requirements in the Accessible Canada Act, Canadian human rights jurisprudence and the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. The report includes recommendations for actions Canadian regulators can take to make regulation development processes more accessible, inclusive and meaningful for persons with disabilities. ARCH is grateful to our funder for this project Employment and Social Development Canada through the Social Development Partnerships
Program (Disability Component). To access the report, please use the following link:

ARCH Honoured with Pat Worth Award!

In October of 2020, ARCH was honoured with the Pat Worth Award which is an annual award that is given out by People First of Canada to an organization that have made an outstanding contribution to the Inclusion Movement in the area of intellectual disability. Pat Worth was an outstanding and passionate advocate, one of the founding members of People First, and worked at ARCH in the mid to late 80’s co-leading our Institutional Outreach project. Pat passed away in 2004 and to be recognized by an award honouring Pat Worth’s legacy is truly humbling and an incredible honour. Here is an excerpt from the email informing
ARCH of this recognition:

“This year, we are pleased to inform you that ARCH Disability Law has been chosen to be the recipient of this very prestigious award. The continuing work of ARCH, the importance of the work you do on behalf of Canadians with disabilities, and your dedication to the Nothing About Us, Without Us model has lead you to be an example to the country on how to ensure people with disabilities are not left behind.”

ARCH remains humbled and grateful for this deeply significant and meaningful honour. Thank you.

Raising Awareness and funds for ARCH

Peter Eaton runs for Inclusive Education and ARCH

ARCH sincerely thanks Peter Eaton who, on his 42nd birthday, ran a 42.5-kilometre marathon as a fundraiser for ARCH. ARCH Disability Law Centre represented Emily Eaton and her family in a fight for inclusive education for children with disabilities, in a case that went all the way to the Supreme Court of Canada. This seminal case, Eaton v. Brant County Board of Education, was a milestone in the fight for the right of children with disabilities to inclusive education, a fight that is unfortunately still on-going.

Now many years later, Emily’s brother Peter, ran a marathon-length distance in a fund-raising and awareness-raising effort. ARCH wishes to thank Peter for his extraordinarily generous decision to undertake this fund-raising effort. Peter exceeded his goal and raised over $4200. Thank you!

Ayella Mullally’s artistic support
Ayela Mullally’s created wearable artwork in the form of tote bags and donated all the proceeds to ARCH to thank us for “defending and expanding on the rights of disabled people”. We thank Ayela for her generous support!
