Accessibility feedback process at Transport Canada

In July 2019, the Accessible Canada Act strives to make Canada barrier-free by January 1, 2040. To do so the Act requires us to identify, remove and prevent barriers in federal jurisdiction in seven of priority areas.

A "barrier" is anything that keeps a person with a disability from participating fully and equally in society. A "disability" is any physical, mental, intellectual, cognitive, learning, communication or sensory impairment or functional limitation.

We want to hear if you've experienced a barrier while dealing with the department about:

  • working at Transport Canada
  • offices or facilities
  • information communication technologies
  • other communication technologies
  • buying goods, services, or facilities
  • how programs or services are designed or delivered
  • transportation

Feedback on our progress report or our accessibility plan can be provided online through our feedback form or through the email, mail, or phone options listed below.

When asked, we commit to providing these alternate formats as soon as possible and within the time frames listed in the Accessible Canada Regulations and the Accessible Transportation Planning and Reporting Regulations subsection 7(1) and 7(2)alternate formats of our plan can be requested in:

  • print 
  • large print
  • braille
  • audio format
  • an electronic format that’s compatible with adaptive technology meant to help people with disabilities.
