Mad Pride Week: Celebrate - Mad Lawyers and Mad People

This week in Toronto and across the country is Mad Pride Week Toronto 2013, celebrating the best and worst of living with mental health issues ... MADNESS.

Mad Pride Week is important for Mad Lawyers and for all lawyers who advocate for a happier, healthier safer and fairer society.

Mad Pride Week is an arts, culture, and heritage festival created by psychiatric survivors, consumers, mad people, and folks the world has labelled “mentally ill”.
