🎉 Today marks the 5th anniversary of a major achievement for disability rights in our country, the coming into force of the Accessible Canada Act!
Over the past five years, we’ve made significant progress in identifying, removing, and preventing barriers to accessibility, and this translates to greater inclusion for over 8 million Canadians with disabilities.
The Accessible Canada Act sets out a goal of realizing a barrier-free Canada by 2040. All Canadians can do their part in identifying and removing barriers to accessibility so that we can create a truly barrier-free Canada for all!

INDIGENOUS PEOPLE'S DAY - JUNE 21, 2024
The Canadian Association of the Deaf – Association des Sourds du Canada (CAD- ASC) has been striving to establish a place for Deaf people to ensure that they have access to education, health, transportation, employment and communications.
CAD-ASC and its members are well aware of the discriminatory laws and practices that allow discrimination to continue. Imagine not being taught a language at birth, left isolated at school or in social situations, being consistently under-unemployed or underemployed. The costs are enormous.
JOURNEE DES PERSONNES AUTOCHTONES - Le 21 juin, 2024
L'Association des Sourds du Canada - Canadian Association of the Deaf (ASC-CAD) s'efforce d'établir une place pour les Sourds afin de s'assurer qu’ils et elles ont accès à l'éducation, à la santé, au transport, à l'emploi et aux communications.
L'ASC-CAD et ses membres sont bien conscients des lois et des pratiques discriminatoires qui permettent à la discrimination de se poursuivre. Imaginez que l'on ne vous enseigne pas une langue à la naissance, que vous soyez isolé à l'école ou dans des situations sociales, que vous soyez constamment sous-employé ou sous-employé. Nous savons tous que les coûts sont énormes.
This week, we celebrate the strides made in identifying and removing barriers for people with disabilities. CAD-ASC is proud of our efforts to enhance accessibility for all. Join us in promoting inclusion and equal opportunities!

'Overwhelming support' for disability benefit complicated by slow implementation, survey finds As Canada’s Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland prepares to deliver the federal government’s budget next week, new data suggests overwhelming support for the Canada Disability Benefit, a form of financial support for people living with disabilities signed into law last June.
