Canada is a signatory to the UN CRPD and provisions set out above. You would never know it though the way NB continues to send youth and adults with mental illness and autism far from families, communities and disability relevant expertise ... all for political gain.
"Premier Blaine Higgs confirmed Friday that a review of the youth centre is underway. He said if the province can safely operate both the current psychiatric hospital and the youth facility, with proper staffing, the new facility will open."
CBC, Saturday, February 9
New Brunswickers have known for years that the Restigouche Psychiatric Hospital has been located on our Northern Border FAR from the vast majority of New Brunswick families and communities for purely political reasons - to provide jobs for Campbellton a city which has lost a substantial number of its residents. The Connecting the Dots consulted people including experts across NB about a youth mental health Centre and Dots co-chair Bernard Richard expected that to be done in what is now NB's largest city Moncton which has psychiatric and psychological expertise and is also more centrally located to other population areas than Campbellton. He was outraged when the Donald Arseneault dominated Liberal government picked far away Campbellton for the Centre.
Autism parents have long been concerned since at least 2005 with the placement of autistic youth and adullts at the Restigouche Psychiatric Hospital. We were hopeful that we would see progress though when we presented the Village Autism Proposal (McDonnell, 2015) to in 2015 in a meeting with Liberal Social Development Minister Cathy Rogers. I was present, along with Professor Emeritus Paul McDonnell and fellow parent Cynthia Bartlett. The meeting seemed positive but ... Rogers was soon transferred and the Gallant government continued to commit to political gain in Restigouche at the expense of the lives of mentailly ill and autistic adults. Higgs has shown himself willing to continue this corrupt and disgusting practice.
Canada is a signatory to the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Articles 25(b) and (c) provide that persons with disabilities have a right to treatment specific to their conditions in locations as close as possible to their communities. By those standards Campbellton is the worst possible location of any municipality in NB for mental illness or autism
