I think that's a reality that we are intimately familiar with. We know that disability rates are estimated at around 14%. I would say it's a little higher, but let's go with 14%. Within 15 years, including Canadians who are elderly and with mobility impairments, that's anticipated to go up quite significantly, to over 20%.
One of the reasons we've moved away from the language of a “Canadians with disabilities act” to “accessibility” is to include the broadest range of people in this act. It isn't necessarily about your diagnosis or condition or illness, or whatever is going on in your life; it's about removing the barrier you are facing to being fully included, whatever that is.
