It's in the Canadian regulations. I got it. Okay.

I also noticed that in some of the findings you actually used data from 2021 from Statistics Canada and applied it to a report in 2023. However, the technology is so different, and there are so many changes. How did you justify taking data from 2021, and applying it to 2023 and these organizations?

It says, for example, on page 9:

Using websites to make reservations or look for information was a barrier faced by 3 out of 10 travellers with disabilities, according to Statistics Canada’s Accessibility in Federal Sector Organizations Survey, 2021.

Is that a fair assessment to apply to this report two years later?
