Dear Mr. Lepofsky:
Thank you for your letter regarding an Ontarians with Disabilities Act and your kind words about our party's recent election victory.
As you know, we have committed to undertake further consultations with organizations across the province on an Ontario with Disabilities Act. I hope that the Ontarians with Disabilities Act Committee will be an active participant in these discussions.
In the interim, I have taken the liberty of forwarding a copy of your letter ta the Honourable Helen Johns, Minister of Citizenship, Culture and Recreation. The Minister or ministry staff will respond to you on behalf of the government.
Sincerely,
Michael D. Harris
