Accessibility action plan for the 2011 Provincial general election

The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees citizens the right to vote and to run for office and provides a guarantee of equality rights to persons with disabilities. The Ontario Human Rights Code provides that individuals have the right to equal treatment with respect to services and facilities. Elections Ontario is required under the Human Rights Code and the Charter to deliver elections to Ontario voters in a manner that does not discriminate. In addition, standards under the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005 (AODA) are being implemented in order to achieve accessibility for Ontarians with disabilities by 2025. The first standard, the Accessibility Standards for Customer Service, required public sector agencies to have in place a Customer Service Policy by January 1, 2010.
