Removing barriers to access in all forms is central to fostering inclusion. To take it one step further, removing the individual's requirement to disclose to access accommodation, whether financial or other, is radical.

Free general admission for everyone, forever, is one of many ways the Glenbow Museum, its partners, and supporters have demonstrated their commitment to radical accessibility throughout the reimagine project.

Bravo to all involved! Glenbow Museum JR Shaw Free Admissions Endowment

Canada is evolving into a more inclusive country, including for Canadians living with disabilities.

Get informed, empowered, and follow the meaningful development of the Accessibility Standards Canada, a framework designed under the Accessible Canada Act to identify and remove barriers that people living with disabilities face. The time is now.

We are proud of IBD's CEO and co-founder Sean Crump's contributions to this important project.

The seven priority areas under the Act are:
1. Employment.
2. The built environment.
3. Information and communication technologies.
4. Communication (other than information and communication technologies).
5. The procurement of goods, services, and facilities.
6. The design and delivery of programs and services.
7. Transportation.

People with disabilities should not have to ask for things they are entitled to, they should expect them. The first step is to develop accessibility standards. Our Roadmap to 2040 outlines how we will achieve this. 🗺️

The pandemic disrupted the traditional workplace, resulting in an employee-driven transformation of improved working conditions.

While this progress improves life for all employees, it has fundamentally levelled the playing field for professionals living with disabilities.

How the post-pandemic work environment benefits every(body):
1. Hybrid And Remote Working
2. Emphasis On Mental Health
3. Benefits Expansion
4. Employee Power
5. Pay Equity

Labour shortages are one of the biggest issues facing Canadian companies right now, but there’s an underrepresented and untapped pool of skilled Canadians that could help close the gap: people with disabilities.

Companies often think that accommodating someone with a disability is too hard or too expensive, but we think it is good business
