Bonjour,
J’ai le plaisir de partager avec vous un document de discussion rédigé par Emploi et Développement social Canada en lien avec l’accessibilité des technologies de l’information et des communications (TIC). C’est par l’entremise de ce document de discussion que je vous invite à prendre part à la mobilisation initiale sur l’élaboration du futur règlement sur l’accessibilité des TIC en vertu de la Loi canadienne sur l’accessibilité<https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flaws-lois.justice.gc.ca%2Ffra%2Flois%2Fa-0.6%2Findex.html&data=05%7C01%7Cidrc%40ocadu.ca%7Cd9b27051107f473401af08dacee72d12%7C06e469d12d2a468fae9b7df0968eb6d7%7C0%7C0%7C638049789531766065%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=rgFmHgK%2BTg0CbjHVaoFNeOTPI3%2BhX%2F6uAhqO27gufug%3D&reserved=0> (LCA).
Le futur règlement sur l’accessibilité mettra l’accent sur l’élimination des obstacles et l’amélioration de l’inclusion et de l’accessibilité dans le domaine des TIC. Il s’appliquerait aux entités sous réglementation fédérale.
Les TIC couvrent tout ce que nous utilisons pour communiquer et faire des affaires dans le monde numérique (voici quelques exemples : sites Web, applications Web, documents PDF ou MS Word, logiciels et matériel).
C’est pourquoi nous aimerions vous entendre. Votre apport contribuera à l’élaboration du futur règlement sur l’accessibilité des TIC.

Hello,
I am pleased to share with you a discussion paper related to accessibility of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) prepared by Employment and Social Development Canada. Through this discussion paper, I would like to invite you to participate in early engagement on the development of the future set of ICT accessibility regulations under the Accessible Canada Act<https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flaws-lois.justice.gc.ca%2Feng%2Facts%2Fa-0.6%2Findex.html&data=05%7C01%7Cidrc%40ocadu.ca%7Cd9b27051107f473401af08dacee72d12%7C06e469d12d2a468fae9b7df0968eb6d7%7C0%7C0%7C638049789531766065%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=592n2%2FBTkrtqkkoahgI2tVLT7DrcMWlAQ%2BbjoxIQz8M%3D&reserved=0> (ACA).
The future accessibility regulations will focus on removing barriers and improving inclusion and accessibility in the area of ICT. They would apply to federally regulated entities.
ICT covers all the things we use to communicate and do business in the digital world (some examples are websites, web applications, PDF or MS Word documents, software and hardware).
This is why we want to hear from you. Your input will help to inform the development of the future ICT accessibility regulations.
