Nice work by @VIA_Rail on #accessibility.

[Carla Qualtrough @CQualtro]

ALL aboard! That’s right - ALL of us. Thanks to an investment made in Budget 2016, the @VIA_Rail Ottawa Station underwent a major renovation project to improve accessibility. Now complete, this station is the most #accessible in its network! #AccessibleCanada @MarcGarneau

This is not the most wonderful time of the year for people using mobility devices. Please do your part and clear sidewalks in front of your home or biz, as well as nearest curb cuts. #accessibility https://t.co/QesMcJ33rq

[UniversalAccessDesign @AccessDesigner]

Thanks for the recent coverage of this issue, @CBCNews. Getting the design right the first time is so important.

Congrats to YVR for taking such a leadership position in accessibility!

[YVR @yvrairport]

YVR was certified gold for accessibility today by @RickHansenFdn. The airport received their highest score ever, making it the highest-rated building in Canada for accessibility. Everyone deserves to travel, and YVR does everything possible to try and make that happen.

Accession to the Optional Protocol provides added protection to Canadians with disabilities. It does so by allowing the @UN Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities to consider complaints against Canada. Today’s special announcement: https://t.co/X6q5SGMIB7 #IDPD2018

[UniversalAccessDesign @AccessDesigner]

The United Nations recognizes the International Day of Persons with Disabilities - "...a better world...where the rights of people with disabilities are fully realized." Sounds well aligned with my motto: "Access for everyone, everywhere, all the time."

Grand Teton recognized for improving access to visitors - too bad it's a bit too far of a drive for me. Kudos to the US National Park Service. https://t.co/Prn4ZgUGjN

Nice work by my friends at @MattersUrban to encourage innovation in housing. Looking forward to helping them make their output accessible! Congrats to the winners.
