Well, there are costs to everything. There are the opportunity costs of all that talent and energy that's been lost over the years of the people who haven't been able to participate.
We need to recognize that part of the reason for the perpetuation of systemic barriers and obstacles is that there are real concerns.... Legal liability is one of the reluctances around employment barriers at times. Part of it are the fixed costs of retrofitting or making facilities and services more accessible.
That's what I mean by these broader policy tools around tax measures, or the grants or contributions, for investments. We need to have a frank, honest conversation that there are costs around accommodation. There are huge benefits and opportunities, but we need to look at both and have a balanced conversation on that.
Again, that's not to hold up or delay fundamental human rights on the altar of a cost-benefit analysis that will mean a further delay and a further perpetuation of barriers to Canadians who have been left out for far too long.
