A tireless advocate whose victories improved people’s lives. A fine friend. A fierce wheelchair hockey player.
Those are some of the ways Centretown activist Blaine Cameron is remembered. Cameron, 48, died October 15 from heart failure.
He worked for accessible Internet, affordable housing, and disability rights, and was a familiar face for almost a decade with Ottawa ACORN, the organization of low- to moderate-income families, where he chaired the central Ottawa chapter. He also worked on many NDP election campaigns.
