❗Nothing is more satisfying than finding some noob in the handicap parking space in my neighborhood and reporting him. #Taiwan is TERRIBLE for disability awareness. People here literally do not care, so I will name, shame, and snap photos with zero regrets - then report to the police. #SelfCare can literally be making a stink about the people who are preventing you from living your life. Sorry not sorry! My gals Alina Pietilainen and Beverly Liu do this regularly and I love them for it. 🫂 ♿ "Being a good ally to the disabled community looks like: Asking businesses about their accessibility and reporting lack of access when you see it. Consulting actual disabled people on projects. Listening to and learning from disabled experiences."

On this International Day of Persons with Disabilities #IDPD2025, these data are striking (50% of people who received Track 2 MAID in Quebec in 2024 reported having a disability).
This imbalance with the rest of Canada needs to be examined.
