Accessible Canada Act

What it asks for

  • Accessibility plans, feedback processes and progress reports on a set cycle.

How AccessFold helps

  • Accessibility evidence that may support an accessibility plan and its progress reports.

What this does not cover

  • The WCAG baseline here is by practice, not by citation in the Act.

AccessFold provides diagnostics and evidence relevant to this framework. It does not determine compliance.
