There is a big demand for accessible housing in Ontario. Few can find it
from This Matters · host Toronto Star
Guest: Bailey Martens, Toronto Star reporter Despite 2.6 million people in Ontario being disabled, there is no policy mandating barrier-free housing for those who need it. There is not even a mention of housing in the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA). For many people with disabilities in this province, the search for housing is as challenging as the lack of options. Star reporter Bailey Martens spoke to one family that had to move eight times in eight years to find wheelchair accessible housing for their young child. She tells their story on today's episode. This episode was produced by Saba Eitizaz, Alexis Green and Matthew Hearn
