[epilepsy] Re: Disability, does anyone receive it?

The problem with the ADA is that I'm in Canada.
The ADA Rules do not apply here.

Instead, we have the Ministry of Public Safety.
They decide what's best for society as a whole.
Not what's best for just one person.

For example... If we're not allowed to drive, it's what's best for the
safety of others. Like our lives don't count.

Same reason why I'm allowed to be a volunteer, but I'm not allowed to
actually get a job somewhere. The Ministry of Public Safety claims that
would put the lives of others at risk.

Since it isn't focussed on just me alone, but figuring out what's best for
the safety of others, it's not classed as discrimination by Canadian
standards.
