Accessibility
A disability organisation with an inaccessible website would be a contradiction.
We build this site to be usable by everyone, and we want to hear about it when we fall short.
Our standard
We aim to meet WCAG 2.2 Level AA. We treat that as a floor rather than a finish line, and as an ongoing obligation rather than a one-time audit.
What we have done
- Semantic HTML with proper headings, landmarks, and a “skip to main content” link
- Text contrast that meets or exceeds AA in both light and dark colour schemes
- Full keyboard operability, with a clearly visible focus indicator on every interactive element
- Respect for your system settings: dark mode, reduced motion, and Windows High Contrast / forced colours
- Text that reflows and remains readable when enlarged, and on small screens
- Touch targets sized for people who do not have fine motor control
- Line lengths and spacing chosen for readability rather than density
- Content written in plain language, with the jargon explained where we cannot avoid it
- No animation, no autoplay, no pop-ups, and no interruptions
- The site works with JavaScript unavailable — nothing essential depends on it
Known limitations
We are a new and very small organisation. This site has not yet been through a formal third-party accessibility audit or systematic testing with a full range of assistive technologies. We would rather state that honestly than imply a certification we do not have.
Tell us about a barrier
If any part of this site is difficult or impossible for you to use, please tell us — it is genuinely useful, and we will fix what we can. Email info@zerocuttaxsociety.ca and describe what happened, what you were trying to do, and what you are using if you know it.
If anything on this site would be easier for you in a different format — large print, plain text, or simply having someone talk you through it — ask us and we will provide it. That includes help with the application itself.
