Hi All

As an example of how much our Province even cares about pdf
accessibility go
to http://www.tcu.gov.on.ca/eng/eopg/tools/aoda.html and find the
pdf document on Built Environment, it is worse than the one I went to
yesterday and doesn't even perform the same way. The file was posted
on November of last year, is part of the AODA legislation that this
Government enacted.

They have been made aware of this by one of our most vocal Advocacy
groups the AODA Alliance and still they keep posting inaccessible
pdf's with no alternate.

So if anyone wants to educate them then please go ahead and let me
know how it goes. :O)

cheers

Geof
