In June 2007, the Canadian Transportation Agency (Agency) released its Code of Practice: Passenger Terminal Accessibility (Terminal Code), which came into effect in June 2009.
The Terminal Code is applicable to operators of air terminals within the National Airports System, certain rail terminal operators and certain ferry terminal operators.
Agency staff assessed terminal operators’ compliance of the Terminal Code with respect to those sections of the Terminal Code which pertain to information to be provided to the public in advance of travel.
This includes information regarding accessible ground transportation and customer service, as well as information related to facilities and services, such as the availability of designated parking areas and wheelchair service.
Agency staff assessed the compliance of 25 airport operators, as well as compliance by VIA Rail, Marine Atlantic, and Northumberland and Bay Ferries (Northumberland).
Terminal operators were first contacted by Agency staff in May 2008 to advise them (open parenthesis: 1 close parenthesis) of the implementation of the Terminal Code in June 2009, and (open parenthesis: 2 close parenthesis) that Agency staff would be reviewing their Web sites to assist them in targeting deficient areas.
A second review of airport Web sites was carried out in early 2009 and, in June 2009, airport operators were once again contacted to inform them of any continued deficiencies and also to offer assistance in complying with the relevant sections of the Terminal Code. Airport operators were further advised that Agency staff would carry out one further and final review of these Web sites, prior to publishing survey results in a forthcoming monitoring report. This final review took place in December 2009.
Page roman numeral 2.
Similarly, a second review of the Web sites of passenger rail stations and ferry terminals was also carried out. Operators of these terminals were contacted in October 2009 and a final review took place in December 2009.
Finally, a review of Web sites that were less than fully compliant as of December 2009 was carried out just prior to the release of this report to ensure that the results being reflected in the report were as current as possible. In cases where air, rail and ferry terminal operators did not have the required information on their Web sites, Agency staff verified whether an equivalent level of information was available by telephone, TTY or an alternative communications system. The results of the final review are reflected in Appendices A, B, and C.
Given the importance of Web site communication in matters related to transportation, the Agency has given special consideration to terminal operators’ use of their Web site to provide the information required in the Terminal Code.
While only three of 25 air terminal operators appeared to be fully compliant with the relevant provisions, footnote 1, of the Terminal Code in May 2009, all air terminal operators were able to achieve full compliance by September 2010, as a result of discussions between Agency staff and air terminal employees to provide updates to their Web sites. Reading of footnote 1 referring to “relevant provisions”. Subsection 2.7.3 – “Ground Transportation”, subsection 3.3 – “Customer Service”, and subsection 3.5 – “Facility and Service Awareness.” End of note, returning to text.
Although the Terminal Code does not require terminal operators to provide the information via Web site and therefore allows for alternative means of communication, in cases where the Web sites did not provide the public information required by the Terminal Code, Agency staff verified whether the information was provided via an alternative means, such as by telephone, TTY, e-mail or online queries. As of September 2010, 25 out of 25 of air terminal operators demonstrated full compliance.
Although all air terminals have been found to be in full compliance with the Terminal Code provisions, the Agency has noted that three of the 25 air terminal operators had not yet updated their Web sites to include the relevant Terminal Code provisions. They are:
1. Calgary International Airport
2. Toronto-Lester B. Pearson International Airport
3. Vancouver International Airport
End of list.
Page roman numeral 3.
Eight terminals account for approximately 75 per cent of VIA Rail’s (VIA) traffic. They are Toronto, Montréal, Ottawa, London, Kingston, Windsor, Québec City and Oshawa. Footnote 2, Reading of the note. VIA Rail is not the terminal operator for the Montréal, Oshawa and Toronto stations. VIA Rail is, therefore, not subject to the Terminal Code at either of these three locations or at any other station where VIA Rail is not the terminal operator. This includes the Aldershot station in Burlington, Ontario, the Guildwood station in Scarborough, Ontario, as well as the station in Jasper, Alberta. End of note, returning to text. The Web sites for these stations, as well as VIA’s general Web site, were examined by Agency staff in order to assess VIA’s compliance with the relevant provisions, footnote 3, of the Terminal Code. Reading of footnote 3 referring to: “relevant provisions”. Subsection 2.7.3 – “Ground Transportation”, subsection 3.3 – “Customer Service”, and subsection 3.5 – “Facility and Service Awareness Program.” End of note, returning to text.
Where the information required by the relevant provisions in the Terminal Code was not indicated on VIA’s Web site, Agency staff verified whether an alternate method of providing the information (e.g. by telephone, TTY or alternate communications systems) was available.
In December 2009, overall compliance ratings ranged from 50 per cent to 63 per cent, depending on the individual station. At that time, VIA was considered “somewhat compliant” with the relevant provisions of the Terminal Code.
Nevertheless, certain sections of VIA’s Web site were found to be quite good with respect to the provision of information regarding accessibility matters. In particular, there is a dedicated “Special Needs” section with extensive information.
Where the VIA Web site is lacking, however, is with respect to information provided for individual stations. For example, there appeared to be no indication of whether accessible taxis are available at any rail station. Similarly, no information was found on VIA’s Web site regarding the availability of accessible rental cars, designated parking areas, designated drop-off and pick-up areas, or designated relieving areas for service animals. In June 2010, Agency staff confirmed with each station that the above-noted information which does not appear on VIA’s Web site can be obtained by contacting VIA’s general information and booking line by telephone, TTY, or by submitting an online request form. VIA has a dedicated TTY number for people who are deaf or hard of hearing, which can be found on its main Web site in the “Contact Us” section.
VIA Rail is considered to be fully compliant with the relevant provisions of the Terminal Code. A detailed summary of results is provided in Appendix B – “Terminal Code: Compliance by VIA Rail with Public Information Requirements.”
Page roman numeral 4.
Agency staff examined the Web sites of Canada’s two principal ferry terminal operators: Northumberland and Marine Atlantic. Similar to the approach taken in monitoring the compliance by air and rail terminals with the Terminal Code provisions, where Agency staff were not able to obtain the information on Northumberland’s or Marine Atlantic’s Web sites, staff verified whether an alternative method of providing the information (e.g., by telephone, TTY or alternative communications systems) was available.
In December 2009, with an overall compliance rating of 86 per cent, Marine Atlantic was considered to be highly compliant with the relevant provisions of the Terminal Code. The only element not found on the Marine Atlantic Web site was the location of designated relieving areas for service animals at each terminal.
Agency staff contacted Marine Atlantic’s three terminals to verify whether they could provide this information via an alternate means and determined that passengers can obtain this information by contacting Marine Atlantic via telephone, TTY or by submitting an email request. In July 2010, Agency staff confirmed that information concerning service animal relief areas was included on Marine Atlantic’s Web site. Marine Atlantic is considered to be fully compliant with the relevant provisions of the Terminal Code.
As well as the specific information requirements of the Terminal Code, Marine Atlantic provides a considerable amount of additional information regarding accessibility matters in the “Persons with Disabilities” section of its Web site, such as information on the Agency’s Communications Code and on Marine Atlantic’s Advisory Committee on Accessibility.
In December 2009, the overall compliance rating for Northumberland’s Web site was 29 per cent. A follow-up review in June 2010 revealed that Northumberland’s compliance rating had not changed. Although its Web site does not contain the necessary information to meet the minimum requirements of the Terminal Code, Agency staff contacted each of the four Northumberland terminals and determined that the information could be obtained by contacting the terminals directly by telephone, TTY, or by submitting a query online. Northumberland has a TTY number, which can be found on its main Web site.
As the relevant information in the Terminal Code can be provided by either telephone, TTY or by submitting a query online, Northumberland is considered to be fully compliant with the relevant provisions of the Terminal Code.
Page roman numeral 5.
A number of terminal operators have included features on their Web sites which go beyond meeting the minimum requirements of the Terminal Code. Such features are particularly helpful in assisting the travel of persons with disabilities. Some examples of these “Best Practices” are provided below.
Many terminal operators have set up a separate “Accessibility”, “Special Needs” or “Persons with Disabilities” section within their Web sites. Not only does this facilitate the search for information on accessibility, but the establishment of such a section encourages the terminal to provide a greater breadth of information than simply that which is required by the Terminal Code. Terminals with a dedicated “Accessibility” Web site section include:
· Air terminals (Beginning sub list)
· Calgary International Airport
· Charlottetown Airport
· Edmonton International Airport
· Halifax Robert L. Stanfield International Airport
· Kelowna International Airport
· London International Airport
· Greater Moncton International Airport
· Montréal Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport
· Ottawa International Airport
· Québec City Jean Lesage International Airport
· Regina International Airport
· Saint John Airport
· Saskatoon John G. Diefenbaker International Airport
· St. John’s International Airport
· Thunder Bay International Airport
· Toronto-Lester B. Pearson International Airport
· Victoria International Airport
· Erik Nielsen Whitehorse International Airport
· Winnipeg James Armstrong Richardson International Airport
· Yellowknife Airport . (End of sub list)
· Rail terminal – VIA Rail (main corporate Web site)
· Ferry terminal – Marine Atlantic (main corporate Web site)
End of list.

Toronto-Lester B. Pearson International Airport initiated its Airport Customer Assistance Program (ACAP) to ensure that all passengers can travel throughout the airport without difficulty. Assistance can be pre-arranged by calling a toll-free number or by completing an ACAP request form online. In the online form, travellers are asked to specify the type of assistance they require, along with flight details and other relevant information. In addition, provision is made to allow travellers to make special requests.

The Agency found that the majority of federally-regulated transportation terminals are now fully compliant with provisions of the Code of Practice: Passenger Terminal Accessibility.
The Canadian Transportation Agency (Agency) is responsible for ensuring that undue obstacles to the mobility of persons with disabilities are removed from federally regulated transportation services and facilities, which include air, rail, and extra-provincial ferry and bus transportation. It seeks to remove such obstacles by developing regulations, codes of practice and standards; communicating with the transportation industry and the community of persons with disabilities; resolving individual accessibility-related disputes; and by ordering corrective measures as required.
The Agency follows the federal government’s policy of setting standards using alternatives to regulations, and therefore develops voluntary codes of practice and other standards. In June 2007, the Agency released its Code of Practice: Passenger Terminal Accessibility (Terminal Code), which was developed in consultation with the Agency’s Accessibility Advisory Committee and other stakeholders.The purpose of the Terminal Code is to ensure a minimum level of accessibility for passenger terminals across Canada, thereby improving the accessibility of terminals for persons with disabilities on a systemic basis as they use the federal transportation system.
The Terminal Code is applicable to operators of air terminals within the National Airports System, footnote 1, and certain rail terminal operators, footnote 2, and ferry terminal operators, footnote 3. Reading of footnote 1 referring to National Airports System. The National Airports System (NAS) is comprised of 26 national airports linking Canada from coast to coast. Currently, the NAS handles 94 per cent of all scheduled passenger and cargo traffic in Canada and includes airports serving the national, provincial and territorial capitals. However, for the purpose of this report, Montréal-Mirabel Airport was excluded, as its operations are limited to cargo services. Reading of footnote 2 referring to rail terminal operators. Operators of rail terminals with 10,000 or more passengers embarking and 10,000 or more passengers disembarking in each of the two preceding years, excluding those terminals operated and maintained by carriers that provide only commuter or tourist services. Reading of footnote 3 referring to ferry terminal operators. Canadian ferry terminals with 10,000 or more passengers embarking and 10,000 or more passengers disembarking in each of the two preceding years; and at which ferries of 1,000 gross tonnes or more operate between provinces or territories, or between a province or territory and the United States. End of notes, returning to text. Those covered by the Terminal Code were expected to have implemented its provisions by June 2009. Interprovincial bus operations are covered by a code of practice administered by Transport Canada and, as such, are not subject to the Terminal Code.
The Agency actively monitors compliance by transportation service providers with its regulations and codes of practice. A risk-based approach to prioritizing its monitoring activities is used and Agency staff works with transportation service providers to address deficiencies identified during monitoring exercises. The Agency publicly reports on the results of its compliance initiatives.
Page 2.
The Terminal Code contains provisions concerning information regarding ground transportation (Subsection 2.7.3), customer service (Subsections 3.3.1 and 3.3.2), and awareness of facilities and services (Subsection 3.5), which is to be made available to the public in advance of travel. The following are the relevant provisions of the Terminal Code contained in this report:
Terminal operators are to have means to inform the public of the types of ground transportation available at the terminal and resource information for these services, including accessible ground transportation, in advance of travel.
In addition, terminal operators are to ensure that information is available to the public about the procedures for the provision of ground transportation services to persons with disabilities. For example, passengers should be made aware of any need to make advance reservations for accessible ground transportation.
As previously stated, terminal operators are expected to ensure that accessible ground transportation is available from the terminal. Where accessible ground transportation is, however, not available at the terminal for persons using larger mobility aids, terminal operators are to include this fact in public information on ground transportation.
Terminal operators are to have a process in place to deal with public concerns or complaints. This process is to include a designated person or group to deal with accessibility related concerns.
Terminal operators are to have a means to inform the public of the availability of this service, including how to voice a concern or make a complaint. Terminal operators' Web sites are to provide information about this service.
Terminal operators are to have a means available to make terminal accessibility features and services known to travellers.
Page 3.
This allows travellers with disabilities, including passengers who may travel infrequently or are uncomfortable travelling, to be aware of what accessibility features and services are available at terminal facilities prior to travel.
This also allows passengers to familiarize themselves with any required accessibility information independently, prior to travel. In addition, it helps to ensure that if terminal operators expend resources to provide accessible features and services, the intended users will be aware of their existence and be able to make use of them.
At a minimum, information on the following features and services are to be made available to the public, where applicable:
· hours of operation;
· location of designated parking areas;
· location of designated drop-off and pick-up areas;
· passenger assistance information, including telephone numbers for accessibility information;
· wheelchair or electric cart service;
· location of designated relieving areas for service animals;
· accessible inter-terminal transportation;
· accessible ground transportation;
· complaint resolution service;
· escort passes; and
· any other relevant information.
End of list.
The Agency identified these specific provisions of the Terminal Code as priorities for monitoring purposes due to the important role that the communication of information has on accessibility and on promoting the mobility of passengers with disabilities within the federal transportation network.
This report sets out the results of monitoring done by the Agency with respect to communication-related provisions contained in the Terminal Code. More specifically, its purpose is to:
gauge the overall level of compliance with these provisions in advance of the implementation of the Terminal Code as well as following its implementation;
identify issues to determine where additional attention may be required;
reinforce the importance of providing information to travelers in an accessible format (websites, telephones, TTY, and other alternative communications systems); and
identify “best practices” in the transportation industry, which go beyond the minimum requirements for these identified provisions.
End of list.

As a reflection of the importance of travel-related information in March 2009, the Agency released Take Charge of Your Travel: A Guide for Persons With Disabilities (Guide), which contains information for persons with disabilities that will help plan their travel, make it easier to get from point A to point B, and describes accessible services and features for travellers with disabilities who use airplanes, trains, as well as passenger ferries and buses that cross a Canadian or provincial border. A significant part of the Guide focuses on the importance of planning and finding information for a trip ahead of time. The successful planning and execution of a trip is fundamental to barrier-free travel in the federal transportation network.
The release of the Guide as well as the monitoring and compliance initiative relating to the Terminal Code are two of several Agency initiatives aimed at reinforcing the importance of providing access to information to travellers with disabilities, as well as the successful planning and execution of a trip, Footnote 4. Reading of the note. Other communications-related initiatives: Multiple Format Policy Compliance Report (2009) and the Alternative Communications Systems Compliance Report (ibid). End of note, returning to text.
The Agency decided to focus its compliance efforts on the following key transportation service providers operating services in the three modes of transportation (i.e., air, rail and ferry):

2. Northumberland and Bay Ferries (Caribou, Digby, Saint John, and Wood Islands terminals)
End of list.
The Terminal Code compliance initiative consisted of multiple steps designed to evaluate and encourage compliance by terminal operators with the above-mentioned provisions of the Terminal Code.
The monitoring project consisted of a series of measures, with an initial focus on terminal operators’ Web sites in order to assess compliance with the sections of the Code regarding the provision of information on accessibility to the public.
In May 2008, the above-noted air, rail, and ferry terminal operators were contacted by Agency staff to advise them that the Terminal Code would come into effect in June 2009 and that during the summer of 2008, Agency staff would be reviewing their Web sites to determine whether they contained the information set out in the relevant sections of the Terminal Code. The purpose of this initial review was to assist terminal operators in targeting deficient areas prior to the formal implementation of the Terminal Code on June 30, 2009.
A review of airport Web sites was carried out in May 2009 and, in the following month, airport operators were contacted to inform them of any continued deficiencies and to offer assistance to address any such deficiencies. Airport terminal operators were also advised that Agency staff would carry out a further review of their Web sites prior to publishing the monitoring results in a public report. This comprehensive Web site review took place in December 2009.
Page 6.
A review of the Web sites of passenger rail stations and ferry terminals was also carried out. Operators of these terminals were contacted in October 2009 and were also offered assistance in complying with the applicable sections of the Terminal Code. A comprehensive Web site review took place in December 2009.
Finally, a review of Web sites that were less than fully compliant as of December 2009 was carried out just prior to the release of this report in order to ensure that the results being reflected in the report were as current as possible. In cases where air, rail and ferry terminal operators did not have the required information on their Web sites, Agency staff verified whether an equivalent level of information was available by telephone, TTY or an alternative communications system. The results of the final review are reflected in Appendices A, B and C.
Given the importance of Web site communication in matters related to transportation, the Agency has given special consideration to terminal operators’ use of their Web sites to provide the information required in the Terminal Code. Giving reflection to the focus on Web sites for air terminals in the May and December 2009 reviews, and with respect to the rail and ferry terminals in the December 2009 review, the focus was on Web site compliance.
While only three of 25 air terminal operators appeared to be fully compliant with the relevant provisions, footnote 5, of the Terminal Code in May 2009, all air terminal operators were able to achieve full compliance by September 2010, as a result of discussions between Agency staff and air terminal employees to provide updates to their Web sites. Reading of footnote 5 referring to “relevant provision”. Subsection 2.7.3 – “Ground Transportation”, subsection 3.3 – “Customer Service”, and subsection 3.5 – “Facility and Service Awareness Program”. End of note returning to text.
As noted above, the Terminal Code does not require terminal operators to provide the information via Web site and therefore allows for alternative means of communication. In case where the Web sites did not provide the public information required by the Terminal Code, Agency staff verified whether the information was provided via an alternative means, such as by telephone, TTY, e-mail or online queries. As of September 2010, 25 out of 25 of air terminal operators demonstrated full compliance.
Although all air terminals have been found to be in full compliance with the Terminal Code provisions, the Agency has noted that three of the 25 air terminal operators had not yet updated their Web sites to include the relevant Terminal Code provisions. They are:
1. Calgary International Airport
2. Toronto Pearson International Airport
3. Vancouver International Airport
End of list.
Page 7.
Several air terminal operators improved their level of compliance significantly over the period of May 2009 to September 2010:

The methodology used for staff’s analysis is described at page 2.
Pages 3 to 7 contain a detailed analysis, by airport, of compliance with each element of the relevant sections of the Terminal Code in both May and September 2010.
End of list.
As noted above, the following eight terminals account for approximately 75 per cent of VIA Rail’s traffic. They are Toronto, Montréal, Ottawa, London, Kingston, Windsor, Québec City and Oshawa, footnote 6, Reading of the note. VIA Rail is not the terminal operator for the Montréal, Oshawa and Toronto stations. VIA Rail is, therefore, not subject to the Terminal Code at either of these three locations or at any other station where VIA Rail is not the terminal operator. This includes the Aldershot station in Burlington, Ontario, the Guildwood station in Scarborough, Ontario, as well as the station in Jasper, Alberta. End of note, returning to text . The Web sites for these stations, as well as VIA Rail’s general Web site, were examined by Agency staff in order to assess VIA Rail’s compliance with the relevant provisions, footnote 7, of the Terminal Code. Reading of note 7 referring to “relevant provision”. Subsection 2.7.3 – “Ground transportation”, Subsection 3.3 – “Customer Service”, and Subsection 3.5 – “Facility and Service Awareness Program”. End of note, returning to text.
Where the information required by the relevant provisions in the Terminal Code was not indicated on VIA Rail’s Web site, Agency staff verified whether an alternative method of providing the information (e.g. by telephone, TTY or alternate communications systems) was available.
In December 2009, overall compliance ratings ranged from 50 per cent to 63 per cent, depending on the individual station. At that time, VIA Rail was considered “somewhat compliant” with the relevant provisions of the Terminal Code. Nevertheless, certain sections of VIA Rail’s Web site were found to be quite good with respect to the provision of information regarding accessibility matters. In particular, there is a dedicated “Special Needs” section with extensive information regarding booking tickets, “One Person One Fare” considerations, priority boarding, checked baggage (including wheelchairs and electric scooters), services available on board, and other relevant information.
However, the Agency noted that information in respect of individual stations is not available on VIA’s Web site. For example, there appeared to be no indication of whether accessible taxis are available at any rail station. Similarly, no information was found on VIA Rail’s Web site regarding the availability of accessible rental cars, designated parking areas, designated drop-off and pick-up areas, or designated relieving areas for service animals.
Page 9.
Despite this lack of information, it is important to note that such services and facilities may, in fact, be provided at some or all of these rail stations. In June 2010, Agency staff confirmed with each station that the above-noted information which does not appear on VIA’s Web site can be obtained by contacting VIA’s general information and booking line by telephone, TTY, or by submitting an online request form. Via Rail has a dedicated TTY number for people who are deaf or hard of hearing, which can be found on its main Web site in the “Contact Us” section.
VIA Rail is considered to be fully compliant with the relevant provisions of the Terminal Code. A detailed summary of results is provided in Appendix B – Terminal Code: Compliance by VIA Rail with Public Information Requirements.
As reflected above, Agency staff examined the Web sites of Canada’s two principal ferry terminal operators: Northumberland and Bay Ferries (Northumberland) and Marine Atlantic. Northumberland operates terminals in Caribou, Nova Scotia, Digby, Nova Scotia, Saint John, New Brunswick, and Wood Islands, Prince Edward Island, while Marine Atlantic operates terminals in Argentia, Newfoundland, Port aux Basques, Newfoundland, and North Sydney , Nova Scotia. A detailed summary of the results can be found in Appendix C – Terminal Code: Compliance by Ferry Terminal Operators with Public Information Requirements.
Similar to the approach taken in monitoring the compliance by air and rail terminals with the Terminal Code provisions, where Agency staff were not able to obtain the information on Northumberland’s or Marine Atlantic’s Web sites, staff verified whether an alternative method of providing the information (e.g., by telephone, TTY or alternate communications systems) was available.
In December 2009, Agency staff monitored Marine Atlantic’s Web site and found it to be highly compliant with an overall compliance rating of 86 per cent. The only information missing on the Web site was with respect to information concerning service animal relief areas, which pertains to Subsection 3.5.2 of the Terminal Code.
Agency staff contacted Marine Atlantic’s three terminals to verify whether they could provide this information via an alternate means and determined that passengers can obtain this information by contacting Marine Atlantic via telephone, TTY or by submitting an e-mail request. Marine Atlantic has a dedicated TTY number, which can be found on its main Web site under “Contact Us.” In July 2010, Agency staff confirmed that information concerning service animal relief areas was included on Marine Atlantic’s Web site. Marine Atlantic is considered to be fully compliant with the relevant provisions of the Terminal Code.
Page 10.
As well as the specific information requirements of the Terminal Code, Marine Atlantic provides a considerable amount of additional information regarding accessibility matters in the “Persons with Disabilities” section of its Web site, such as information on the Agency’s Communications Code and on Marine Atlantic’s Advisory Committee on Accessibility.
In December 2009, the overall compliance rating for Northumberland’s Web site was 29 per cent. The only information found on its Web site, which related to the information requirements of the Terminal Code, was contact information for customer service. A follow-up review in June 2010 revealed that Northumberland’s compliance rating did not change. Although its Web site does not contain the necessary information to meet the minimum requirements of the Terminal Code, Agency staff contacted each of the four Northumberland terminals and determined that the information could be obtained by contacting the terminals directly by telephone, TTY, or by submitting a query online. Northumberland has a TTY number, which can be found on its main Web site, under “Terminal Parking Area & Fees.”
As the relevant information in the Terminal Code can be provided by either telephone, TTY or by submitting a query online, Northumberland is considered to be fully compliant with the relevant provisions of the Terminal Code.
Page 11.
A number of terminal operators have included features on their Web sites which go beyond meeting the minimum requirements of the Terminal Code. Such features are particularly helpful in assisting the travel of persons with disabilities. Some examples of these “Best Practices” are provided below.
Many terminal operators have set up a separate “Accessibility”, “Special Needs” or “Persons with Disabilities” section within their Web sites. Not only does this facilitate the search for accessibility information, but the establishment of such a section encourages the terminal to provide a greater breadth of information than simply that which is required by the Terminal Code. Terminals with a dedicated “Accessibility” Web site section include:
· Air terminals (Beginning sub list)
· Calgary International Airport
· Charlottetown Airport
· Edmonton International Airport
· Halifax Robert L. Stanfield International Airport
· Kelowna International Airport
· London International Airport
· Greater Moncton International Airport
· Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport

1. For Web site Compliance calculations, a “YES” is coded as “1” and a “NO” is coded as a “0”. Availability of basic non-accessible Ground Transportation services is not coded at all, as they are not relevant to the provision of accessible services. What is relevant is that, if a ground transportation service is generally available, then that service should also be made available on an “accessible” basis.
2. Compliance with subsection 2.7.3 is a mathematical average of the variables in that section, excluding Non-Accessible Ground Transportation (as per note 2).
3. Compliance with subsection 3.3.2 is either 100% or 0%, depending on whether a process of making complaints is provided on the airport’s Web site.
4. Compliance with subsections 3.5.1 and 3.5.2 is a mathematical average of the 7 or 8 variables in that section.
5. Overall Compliance is a mathematical average of the 13 or 14 variables in all sections. Since there are more variables in subsections 3.5.1 and 3.5.2, it is weighted more heavily towards those sections.

This monitoring exercise focused on the following 8 terminals: Kingston, London, Montréal, Oshawa, Ottawa, Quebec City, Toronto and Windsor.
The first table is divided into 2 categories, each demonstrating a percentage of compliance: “50%-56%” and “63%”. The “50%-56%” category, which represents 75% of all 8 terminals, contains the Kingston, London, Montréal, Ottawa, Toronto and Windsor terminal. The “63%” category, which represents 25% of all 8 terminals, contains the Oshawa terminal and the Quebec City terminal.
The second table is divided into 1 category: “100%”. As of September 2010, all of the following terminals are compliant: Kingston, London, Montréal, Oshawa, Ottawa, Quebec City, Toronto and Windsor.

1. For Web site Compliance calculations, a “YES” is coded as “1” and a “NO” is coded as a “0”. Availability of basic non-accessible Ground Transportation services is not coded at all, as they are not relevant to the provision of accessible services. What is relevant is that, if a ground transportation service is generally available, then that service should also be made available on an “accessible” basis.
2. Compliance with subsection 2.7.3 is a mathematical average of the variables in that section, excluding Non-Accessible Ground Transportation (as per note 2).
3. Compliance with subsection 3.3.2 is either 100% or 0%, depending on whether a process of making complaints is provided on the airport’s Web site.
4. Compliance with subsections 3.5.1 and 3.5.2 is a mathematical average of the 7 or 8 variables in that section.
5. Overall Compliance is a mathematical average of the 13 or 14 variables in all sections. Since there are more variables in subsections 3.5.1 and 3.5.2, it is weighted more heavily towards those sections.
