Canadian HIV/AIDS Legal Network

    Quotes by Bradford included in:
    A Plan of Action for Canada to reduce HIV/AIDS-related stigma and discrimination


    "There ARE individuals who are OUT about their HIV status who are NOT afraid to speak up. What is necessary is media coverage not of new medications and side effects, or individuals sick and dying, but interviews with HIV+ individuals who are living!"

    '' Who better to reach people than those who are living with HIV who are not afraid to talk about the fact that they are living with HIV. People need to see others living with HIV who are out about their status, in order to move away from the fear...

    Many people world wide are out about their HIV status and many many more are voicing they would also like to be able to live without fear and let others know they are living with HIV.  Unfortunately, the fear of discrimination still exists today, and this prevents many from feeling safe about revealing their status."
     Bradford McIntyre, HIV-positive for 20 years
