One of the strongest allies to Albertans with disabilities is the 10,000 Community disability service professionals who support people every day, day after day. We deeply value Monica's trust in us to share her conviction that we need to stop ADAP. It's time we strengthen AISH and build on what's already there.

Imagine... What would truly accessible entertainment be? Time to dream… and maybe one day it is.

Help make broadcasting more accessible!

The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission has opened a public consultation to help ensure broadcasters, including online streaming services, make their content more accessible for persons with disabilities.

As part of the consultation process, the CRTC is asking for public feedback on how television and online streaming services can be made more accessible for Canadians with disabilities.

If you have any comments you want to share, there are a couple ways to participate.
