The disability rights movement advocates equal access to social, political, and economic life which includes not only physical access but access to the same tools, services, organizations and facilities which we all pay for. accessibletoronto.com supports the Ontarians with Disabilities Act of 2001, designed to "improve the identification, removal and prevention of barriers faced by persons with disabilities" and promotes the further strengthening of this act to reflect enforcement through penalties or deadlines. We encourage the government to revisit the Act and pass a stronger, more effective Act.
Ontario’s first accessibility standard is the Accessibility Standards for Customer Service Regulation, O. Reg. 429/07. It came into effect on January 1, 2008. |
