Mental Health Rights: But Changes Are Afoot

They may simply refuse to begin out of fear of failure. I will begin my focus with the anxiety disorders that can manifest in different forms. Overall, we found that while the CRPD remains conspicuously absent from Canadian legislation, public policy, and jurisprudence, the country’s ratification of the Convention -the first human rights treaty of the 21st century and the fastest ever negotiated.

We undertook a critical review of the CRPD’s implementation in Canadian legislation, public policy, and jurisprudence associated with mental health, as part of this analysis.

Canada. Our article published in BMC International Health and Human Rights assesses the CRPD’s potential impact on mental health systems and presents a legal and public policy analysis of its implementation in one high income country. As a result, there remains a divide, even in Canada, between the Convention’s goals and the experiences of Canadians with disabilities, while the Convention is clearly an important step forward.
