Today marks the 75th anniversary since the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was adopted. Since this time, we’ve turned to the Declaration many times to demand justice, dignity, and respect, and will continue to do so.

Here's an opportunity for us to build toward next year 2024 and every year thereafter - "30in30" - Month for Human Rights - as below !! "30in30 - From Remembrance to Equity, Inclusion & Human Rights 2023" ( November 11 to December 10 ) - A possible shared effort to get all Canadians to pause and fully consider the real meaning and underlying significance of Remembrance Day - as well as its visceral connection to the International Day for Human Rights - let's consider the fact that there are 30 days between November 11 ( Remembrance Day ) and December 10 ( the International Day for Human Rights ) with December 10th of course being the anniversary of the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights ( UDHR ) in 1948 ! As the UDHR - in its 75th anniversary year - has 30 Articles - one for each of the 30 days that separate these two reflective moments in our shared provincial, national and international consciousness - "30in30 - From Remembrance to Equity, Inclusion & Human Rights" is an opportunity to consider each of the Articles - day by day - as we travel from "remembrance" to why it was and is that we engage(d) in such violent forms of conflict resolution - to the preservation and/or pursuit of freedom, equity, inclusion, fairness and human rights !! Understanding the significance of the 30 day connection between Remembrance Day and the International Day for Human Rights - the "30in30" month long learning initiative provides the space to more creatively apply an equity and justice informed understanding of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, our Human Rights Codes and Commissions, the Canadian Human Rights Act and other of our equity and justice relevant domestic laws and policies - as well as how they connect with the full spectrum of international human rights legal instruments. Instruments such as the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples ( UNDRIP ), the International Convention on the Elimination of all forms of Racial Discrimination ( ICERD ), the twin International Covenants on - Economic, Social and Cultural Rights ( ICESCR ) and Civil and Political Rights ( ICCPR ), the Convention on the Rights of the Child ( CRC ), the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities ( CRPD ), the Convention on the Elimination of all forms of Discrimination Against Women ( CEDAW ), the Statement on Human Rights, Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity ( December 2008 ) and many critical others ! In this the 75th anniversary year of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights ( UDHR ) - Colour of Poverty - Colour of Change encourages everyone to creatively harness the 30 days as and how they wish - and in whichever way makes most sense to them - to connect your special events or regular programming or otherwise take best advantage of the opportunity for teaching and learning and for taking human rights ACTION !!

Protecting Individual Rights: The Essence of a Truly Patriotic Nation Hey everyone! 🇺🇸 Today, I wanted to discuss an important aspect of patriotism that often gets overlooked: the protection of individual rights and democratic values. It's crucial to recognize that an excessive or extreme national or ethnic identity can trample upon our democratic rights as individuals. Narrow-minded nationalism is nothing more than a tool used by those in power to manipulate the masses. True patriotism lies in safeguarding the personal interests and private property of every citizen. Only in such a nation can we find the true meaning of patriotism. 🗽 We should strive for a society that upholds the principles of democracy, equality, and individual freedoms. Our love for our country should be rooted in the belief that every individual deserves the right to express their opinions, pursue their dreams, and enjoy the fruits of their labor. 🌟 Let us remember that the strength of a nation lies in its ability to protect its citizens' rights and create an environment where everyone can thrive. It's about cherishing the diversity of ideas and perspectives that make our nation strong. 🌎 So, as proud people of a civilized country , let's embrace a patriotism that values the rights and well-being of every individual. Let's work towards creating a society that truly represents the ideals and principles upon which our great nation was founded. 🙌 #PatriotismWithPurpose #ProtectingIndividualRights #UnitedWeStand

Absolutely, the significance of freedom is profound, and it’s essential to reflect on the journey that brought us here. While we celebrate 77 years of independence, it’s also a time to introspect on the progress we’ve made and the challenges that remain. Key areas for introspection might include: Social Equality: Have we achieved the social justice and equality envisioned by our freedom fighters? Economic Growth: How has our economic landscape evolved, and are we ensuring inclusive growth for all sections of society? Education and Health: Are we providing quality education and healthcare to every citizen? Environmental Sustainability: How are we balancing development with environmental conservation? Democratic Values: Are we upholding the democratic principles and freedoms that form the foundation of our nation? Reflecting on these aspects can help us honor the sacrifices made for our freedom and guide us towards a more equitable and prosperous future. Happy Independence Day .
