**Content Warning: Disability**Some of these photographs may be triggering for some individuals.Today we headed to the Canadian Museum for Human Rights to observe International Day for Persons with Disabilities. The event also coincided with the marking of the official closure of the Manitoba Developmental Centre. The feeling was heavy - but necessary to reflect on - as specific artifacts were chosen to show the public the reality of what life was like in the MDC.Thank you to @AbilitiesManitoba and their partners for bringing us together to reflect and find closure on a dark chapter in our province’s history. #InternationalDayofPersonswithDisabilities
