MP Kusmierczyk announces Windsor Law Professor Laverne Jacobs' nomination for United Nations Committee
June 17, 2021
I was proud to make a historic announcement this afternoon that Canada nominates our very own Windsor Law Professor Laverne Jacobs to be Canada's first-ever candidate to the United Nations Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities #UNCRPD
Truly a historic moment for Canada and Windsor-Essex - and a terrific day for the empowerment of Canadians with disabilities and the advancement of a barrier-free Canada.
