Also worth noting that this 'consultation' process as it is now presumes that a #NationalAutismStrategy as proposed by CASDA is a done deal. No recognition of the fact that Autistic people & Autistic led orgs (who OPPOSE the NAS) haven't been meaningfully consulted at any point.
...which is actually what I'd expect from a lobbying group whose co-chair is the exec. director of A$ Canada, sister to the US org whose financial founder is currently being boycotted for being a Trump supporter despite *gestures at everything*. *cough*A$ is a hate group*cough*

What is being done to ensure that there will be genuine, meaningful dialogue with Canadian Autistic-led self-advocacy and civil rights organizations before creating or implementing this strategy? 2/4
What independent and long-term studies are being done in Canada to ensure that the therapies that Autistic people are being given are safe & beneficial to the Autistic person themselves (vs. parents and caregivers, teachers etc.) before the expansion of services under a NAS? 3/4
