Personal

For those who are unaware, this is Thanksgiving weekend in Canada. I was asked this morning if I have plans for celebrating the weekend. I responded, in my typical style, by asking "Do you mean plans to celebrate the subjugation of first nation peoples by European colonialists?. I am glad that I live in Canada, I am glad to live here with all of the people who share the land, and I hope that as we mature individually and as a nation that we can share the land more equitably amongst us all.

As many readers already know, I work primarily in the web accessibility field. After being inspired by Personal Story: Pratik Patel's Passion for Knowledge, I thought I'd share about why I do what I do.

I primarily contribute my time and skills to three communities: Drupal, the Fluid Project, and the HTML Accessibility Task Force of the W3C.
