Share your ideas: Consultation on a draft Accessible Canada Roadmap ‒ Closed consultation
Current status: Closed
This consultation ran from September 27, 2024 to January 15, 2025.
See the “What We Learned” report for a summary of the discussions that took place.
Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) invited people to provide feedback on the draft Accessible Canada Roadmap.
The proposed roadmap aims to set out a national framework for what a barrier-free Canada looks like, and we are hoping to hear from diverse voices active in advancing accessibility across Canada.
Broad feedback was important for finalizing and publishing a roadmap that drives cohesive and meaningful action towards a barrier-free Canada by 2040.
ESDC organized additional engagement activities to complement the posting of this discussion paper.
