Hi Patrick:
That is quite good.

Is there any chance that accessibility of television programming will
follow? I find it frustrating when music plays while stock market
quotes are shown on screen or when captions are shown when languages
other than English are spoken. I do not know the percentage of your
programming that is described, but often when watching the news, I feel
excluded when these situations occur.

Hello everyone,

This morning my employer has placed an accessibility statement on
their
site.

If anyone has time, I would very much appreciate any feedback and/or
recommendations for the following page:
http://www.cbc.ca/accessibility/

The content is minimal right now, but will expand the contents over
time so
that users of AT can learn of accessibility improvements when they are
made
to the site.

Thanks!
-Patrick
