Accessibility Legislation for Saskatchewan

In the 2019 Speech from the Throne, government announced that new legislation will be introduced aimed at removing and preventing accessibility barriers. The new accessibility legislation will look at design of public spaces, information and communications, customer service standards, service animal certification, public sector procurement and employment, and public transportation.

During the development of this legislation, we will be seeking feedback from people across Saskatchewan, including the disability community, stakeholders, the private sector and general public.

Due to the current situation with COVID-19, we are postponing the public engagement we had hoped to begin in May. This work is a priority for our government, and we will proceed when we can engage in a comprehensive, inclusive and safe manner.

Current status:

Preparing for public engagement

How you can be involved:
