Annotation

Passages used in this catalogue:

  • 1960: “Active in the formation of BCPA, Doug Mowat accepts the role of Executive Director.” The page says the organization “flourished under his innovative, strong leadership extending over three decades.”
  • 1981: International Year of the Disabled “chaired provincially by BCPA Executive Director Doug Mowat.”
  • 1985: “Creekview opens near Granville Island in Vancouver. Creekview was the world’s first integrated, self-managed housing project with shared support services for people with high-level quadriplegia.”
  • 2012: BCPA changes its name to Spinal Cord Injury BC.

The “world’s first” wording is SCI BC’s later claim. This archive records it as an organizational attribution, not as an independently verified superlative.

The page does not mention ECPM, CSIL, Patricia Ryan, or a 1987 evaluation.
