A New Brunswicker who spent his career advocating for people living with intellectual disabilities has been honoured with a national award.
Ken Pike of Rothesay was the director of policy for Inclusion N.B. before retiring in 2024 and is recognized with a distinguished leadership award from Inclusive Education Canada.
In an interview with CBC Radio’s Shift, Pike said he took interest in this type of work during law school.
“I immediately saw the issue around lack of equality for students with a disability and accessing the general education system here in New Brunswick,” Pike said, adding that the Charter of Rights and Freedoms was still “pretty new at the time” when he graduated in the 1980s.
