Publication of the 2019 Pilot Public Opinion Research (POR) Survey on Accessibility

 Hello,

I’m pleased to share with you results from the 2019 Pilot Public Opinion Research (POR) Survey on Accessibility. The final report is now available on Library and Archives Canada’s POR Reports portal in HTML and PDF formats at the following link: https://epe.lac-bac.gc.ca/100/200/301/pwgsc-tpsgc/por-ef/employment_social_development_canada/2019/012-18-e/index.html.

Additional accessible formats are also available at the same link, including large print, digital braille, E-Text, and DAISY Type 4.

As you may recall, the ACC commissioned the survey to measure what Canadians know about accessibility and to measure how persons with disabilities experience barriers to accessibility. The survey results will provide important information for understanding the progress being made under the Accessible Canada Act and the realization of a Canada without barriers.

I would like to sincerely thank you for the support you provided throughout the process. Members of what was the Federal Accessibility Legislation Alliance played an important role in the development of the survey, and we could not have done it without you.

Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to let me know.

Sincerely,

Rupa Bhawal-Montmorency

Director General, Accessibility Secretariat

Employment and Social Development Canada
