Consultation

The Nova Scotia Accessibility Advisory Board(External link) has drafted recommendations on the following accessibility standards:

  • Information and communication
  • Public transportation

Accessibility standards, once approved, are regulations or laws that help make Nova Scotia accessible.

The Board would like your feedback on their draft recommendations. You can access the draft standards and learn more on the consultation website.

Online feedback sessions

You can give feedback at one of our online sessions between February 19 to March 6, 2026. The sessions will each be about 2 hours long. If you want to attend a feedback session, you need to register.

After you register, we will send you a Zoom link for your session. We will also send you the draft standard recommendations to review. We will include a summary of the recommendations in ASL, English, and French.

There will be one session just for the Deaf and Signing community. We will also have ASL/English interpreters and CART captioning at any other session if requested when you register.

There will be one session in French.

Please share this with anyone who may also want to give feedback.
