resource image

This dashboard allows users to examine data on barriers to accessibility experienced by persons with disabilities. These are barriers encountered in different aspects of daily living focused on those found in public spaces; communicating in different situations; using the Internet, and barriers related to behaviours, misconceptions or assumptions by others.


The data in this dashboard comes from the 2022 Canadian Survey on Disability (CSD). The CSD is a national survey of persons aged 15 years and over whose everyday activities are limited due to a long-term condition or health-related problem. The CSD sample is selected from the Census of Population respondents making it a post-censal survey. For more methodological details see Canadian Survey on Disability, 2022: Concepts and Methods Guide
