The sovereignty and independence nation states is a foundational principle of international law and the UN Charter. I have been proud to defend Ukraine’s independence. I’m also proud to defend Canada. Defending Canada’s sovereignty is the duty of every patriot regardless of party or region.

While 54% of Canadians are familiar with the concept of ageism, 87% fail to grasp its widespread prevalence. A new @Ipsos survey commissioned by @CCAAgeism reveals a critical need to #StopAgeism, and improve understanding of this critical issue in Canada. ipsos.com/en-ca/public-opini….

This webinar with @acelawyers is for ppl who have questions about what hospitals can & cannot do when you or your loved one is getting close to being discharged to #LTC, home care, retirement home, home or other. Can they charge you for your hospital bed? What rights do patients/their substitute decision makers have? What common misinformation are patients being given? & more...
Please share with anyone who would benefit from this information.

Combating ageism starts with awareness and education. Educate yourself, share information and resources and engage in discussion to promote understanding and challenge ageist beliefs. #StopAgeism @ILCglobal
We support that! #AgeWithRights
Ageism is a global issue, and older people are often overlooked in policy and human rights frameworks. A UN convention would ensure their rights are protected. #RightsOfOlderPersons @ILCglobal
