The Accessible Canada Act

The Accessible Canada Act, enacted in 2019, aims to make Canada more accessible for people with disabilities. It establishes a framework for removing barriers in various areas such as employment, transportation, and information accessibility. The law requires federal organizations to create accessibility plans and report on progress. Its goal is to create an inclusive society by ensuring that everyone, regardless of ability, can participate fully in community life and access services. By promoting equality and fostering proactive measures, the act seeks to enhance the quality of life for individuals with disabilities across the country.
