According to the Canadian Survey on Disability, 27% of Canadians over the age of fifteen identify as living with a disability—around eight million people. In the age of the Accessible Canada Act, the Canada Disability Benefit, and Accessibility Standards Canada, why is there a gap between policy and people’s lived experience?

The Walrus Talks AccessAbility is a live podcast recording of Courage Inc. hosted by Duncan Sinclair, Deloitte Chair of Canada and Chile, who brings years of leadership and expertise to this urgent discussion. Featuring talks by four speakers from the disability community on policy frameworks, leadership, and innovation, the importance of technology, corporate rollbacks on DEI, and the persistence of ableism, the talks will be followed by a panel discussion moderated by Sinclair.
