A Dramatic Demonstration It's often assumed that people with mental or physical disabilities cannot participate in today's complex society. As a symbolic gesture in this International Year, we've done something out of the ordinary: we've produced a television commercial-- just to set the record straight. Consider this. Of the 68 people involved in our production, 42 are mentally or physically disabled: among them, the director, the camera- man, the set designer and the carpenters, the electrician, the make-up artist, the sound engineer, the announcer, many of the musicians and the man who wrote the music, who was deaf--but is better remembered for being Beethoven. If you've seen the commercial, you've seen what happens when we work together. If you haven't seen it yet, it's a dramatic demonstration of a single simple point: disabled people should be thought of for what they can do, rather than what they can't. Our slogan, created by a man with a disability, sums it up and says it all: "label us able" Margaret Birch Provincial Secretary for Social Development we Ontario William Davis Premier International Year y 981 y of Disabled " y Persons XN L Wednesday, June 10, 1981, Page 9
