For more information on the topics addressed by CCD's Social Policy Committee, consult the following sites:

Election 2008 presents an opportunity for Canadians with disabilities to raise their issues. Presently, at the federal level, social policy appears to be homeless. CCD wants all Parties to present their social policy platform and vision for Canada. This vision must ensure Canadians with disabilities have equal access to the goods and services of our great country.

CCD works from a human rights perspective, which argues that technology needs to be accessible so that people with disabilities experience its benefits. CCD works for laws, policies and programs that remove barriers to technology.

CCD’s Access to Technology Committee participates in research projects on accessible technology, liaises with technology service providers, appears before the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC).
