Being #UnstoppABLE®:
Stories of Accessibility and Inclusion
We join Canada each year in celebrating National AccessAbility Week (NAAW)—honouring progress toward accessibility, inclusion, and the removal of barriers for people with disabilities.
Accessibility is more than a principle—it’s about the choices we make in every space we shape, ensuring everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
When barriers are removed and voices are heard, people with disabilities can reach their full potential. NAAW reminds us to continue breaking down barriers and making accessibility and inclusion the standard, not the exception.
As the Government of Canada highlights, NAAW is about taking action, raising awareness, and reaffirming our commitment to accessible spaces and opportunities for all Canadians.
The video below features ASL interpretation and closed captions.
Together, we can build a future where accessibility and inclusion are standardized everywhere.
