Disability justice in Hamilton

January 1, 2025 came and went last year, and with it, the deadline for implementing the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA), a statute enacted 20 years ago to improve accessibility standards.  Experts have warned that Ontario is “nowhere near” being fully accessible. In this episode of Future Intended, Rudi Wallace talks to Brad Evoy (Executive Director, Disability Justice Network of Ontario) about the AODA and how it fares relative to disability justice, a concept that includes understanding how disability intersects with other aspects of identity like racialization, gender and access to shelter.
