SUMMARY:These Four Walls - Film by PFC
DESCRIPTION:December 3 is the International Day of Persons with Disabilities. To celebrate this day\, People First of Canada chapters are showing the documentary These Four Walls in their communities. \nThese Four Walls was released by PFC in 2025. The film takes the viewer through the lives of people with intellectual disabilities who were forced to live in the Manitoba Developmental Centre\, or MDC\, a large institution for people with disabilities in the prairie province. The film also follows a class action lawsuit lead by David Weremy against the Government of Manitoba. \n“The goal of the film was to show the world how people were treated in institutions and to advocate for a future where institutions would be permanently closed\,” said Donna Brown\, President of PFC. \nYou can join People First members watching the film in your community\, or you can request the film by emailing info@peoplefirstofcanada.ca \nVisit the People First of Canada Facebook page for more details or links to showings.

SUMMARY:Aging Caregivers
DESCRIPTION:We cannot slow the aging process in ourselves or in the people we care for! As we get older\, our ability to care for our family member becomes more and more difficult. Planning our own future\, and the future of our loved ones can be a terrifying process. Will we be able to provide the necessary care? Will they be well cared for in the future\, after we are gone? What can we do to make the future easier? Connecting with other families in similar situations is the best way to problem solve and figure out what will work best for our specific situations. Join our call with other “mature” parents and caregivers and we can problem solve together!\n\nFamily Support Institute of BC (FSI) is a provincial not-for-profit society committed to supporting families who have a family member with a disability.
