Tuesday, 29 November 2011. Liberals Fail to Acknowledge Privilege. This blog will address my thoughts on the quotation below:. Liberals accept inequality of circumstances because of their profound belief in equal opportunity, which means that we are all equal before the law. No one has any more freedoms or liberties than anyone else. Everyone has access to education, the job market, health care, social services, and so on. What an optimistic liberal lens. They also have the necessary resources available ...

Sunday, November 20, 2011. Going back in the "Closet". Older people face many challenges and the biggest one is their health (Neysmith, 2003). As people age their ability to do daily activities decrease which may require a certain amount of care necessary to go about their day (Neysmith, 2003). This leads to their biggest health care problem which is long term care for when an older person can no longer take care of themselves (Neysmith, 2003). 8221; (StuMaddox, 2009).

Me, Myself, My Mind: October 2011
http://mil-memyselfmymind.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Me, Myself, My Mind. Wednesday, October 26, 2011. Poverty and Mental Illness: A Social Democratic Stance. All in all social democratic ideologies is the perfect fit in fighting the incidence of mental illness in Canada.

http://rainbowrights1310.blogspot.com/2011/11/lgbttq-elders-have-sexual-needs-too.html
Tuesday, November 15, 2011. LGBTTQ* elders have sexual needs too! By simply shutting their door. LGBTTQ* seniors have faced historical and current barriers in their desire to openly express their love for their significant other, while residing in long-term care organizations. As a result, many do not disclose their sexual identity because they fear they will be treated negatively or refused adequate care (Brotman et. al., 2003; Brotman, Ryan, Collins, Chamberland, Cormier, Julien. Neysmith (2003), recog...
