David Onley remembered as role model, champion of disability rights
Hundreds of people attended the funeral of former Ontario lieutenant-governor David Onley at Yorkminster Park Baptist Church in Toronto. Onley emerged as a tireless advocate of disability rights both during and after his seven-year stint as Ontario's 28th lieutenant-governor. Jaclyn Pope says she is visionally impaired and Onley was an inspiration for her to become an accessibility advocate.
