Few laws since the Charter of Rights and Freedoms have had as much impact as the Accessible Canada Act. Passed in 2019, it aims to create a barrier-free Canada by 2040, addressing employment, infrastructure, communication, and more.
Despite its significance, many remain unaware of its impact and origins. In The Race to the Starting Line, Max Brault unpacks the Act’s key elements, introduces the federal offices enforcing it, and shares powerful stories of resilience. Featuring insights from top accessibility leaders, the book is both a roadmap and a call to action to remove barriers across Canada.

This book is like a friendly, guided tour through the history of accessibility in Canada. Max is your easy-going guide, leading you on an engaging journey through the origins of the Accessible Canada Act, its key players, and what it means for Canadians today and in the future. While the disability community will undoubtedly appreciate this book, I truly hope that those unfamiliar with accessibility are the ones who find it most eye-opening and impactful.
The Accessible Canada Act (ACA) is one of our most important laws since we all either have disabilities or will likely get them at some point in our lives. In this book, I appreciated reading about the very inclusive way diverse people, with and without disabilities, came together to create the ACA, and how the different pillars and roles in the ACA work together to support the important goal of making Canada barrier-free. To achieve that goal, we all have a big part to play in the implementation of the ACA into the future, whether we are employers, colleagues, clients or citizens. This is an essential guide to get us going on that journey!
