27% of Canadians identify as having a #disability of some kind, and those who are disabled are twice as likely to be in #housing need, and 4x as likely to become #homeless. We're proud to have contributed to some of this important work with @HousingLogement and @CdnHumanRights.

Fall is here! 🍁🍂🌻 Forget pumpkin spice lattes. The 3 most important things you need to do are: 👉 change your furnace filters, 👉 check your smoke detectors, 👉 and if you aren’t eating toasted tomato sandwiches every day, what are you even doing?
