Feedback you can submit

You can submit feedback on ISED Accessibility Plans, Progress Reports or on any barriers experienced when dealing with ISED.

The Accessible Canada Act defines a barrier as:

"…anything physical, architectural, technological or attitudinal, anything that is based on information or communications or anything that is the result of a policy or a practice—that hinders the full and equal participation in society of persons with an impairment, including a physical, mental, intellectual, cognitive, learning, communication or sensory impairment or a functional limitation."

We welcome your feedback on the accessibility of our:

  • services
  • programs
