Found this great video from the U.S. on the rights of people with developmental disabilities to access technology. Worth watching and finding out more about in respect to Canada, and ensuring that access to technology & information is truly accessible to all.
People with cognitive disabilities have an equal right to technology and information access. A coalition of disability organizations and individuals asserted this right in a formal declaration, announced at the Thirteenth Annual Coleman Institute National Conference on Cognitive Disability and Technology, held October 2, 2013, in Broomfield, Colorado.
Here's the link, if you are looking for more information.
