I just want to follow up.
On October 22, in committee, Ms. Barbara Collier, the executive director of Communication Disabilities Access Canada said:
I just want to say that I was stressing the scope of the issue of communication access, but I think it's very doable. Ninety per cent of what I am talking about is education, and I think we have the education resources that could be put in place. What we need is a standard stating that everyone needs training about how to communicate with people who communicate in different ways. It's very doable.
I just want to emphasize that we heard from our stakeholders and our witnesses that public education is so important. I'm a little concerned, from what I'm interpreting and hearing from the department, that this public education might not happen for a year or so—a year and a half to two years. I think it's important that we have some timelines in there, because two years from now is quite a while.
