If you want a response

If you’ve asked for a response, we will respond in the same way that you communicated with us.

Finding answers to more complex issues might take time. If that’s the case for your feedback, we’ll still follow up to let you know what we’re doing.


What we do with your feedback

  • We analyze feedback for trends and patterns. We don’t identify individuals in our reports.

  • The only time your feedback will be connected to you is when you request a personal response from our Diversity, Inclusion and Employment Equity Office.

  • We publish annual progress reports in the years between accessibility plans. In these progress reports, we report on the feedback we receive and how we are taking it into consideration.
