Our target

Level AA of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1, on every page, in both languages.

Reading

Every page is plain HTML that reads in full without JavaScript. Text is ink on white at a contrast of 18.73 to 1; white on red, on buttons and the statement pane, is 5.88 to 1. Pages reflow to a phone’s width without sideways scrolling and work at 400% zoom.

Moving around

A skip link comes first on every page. Everything works with a keyboard, with a visible focus ring. The menu on small screens is a native disclosure that works without scripts.

Motion

Product films play only while they’re in view, with no sound, and always have a pause button; if your device asks for reduced motion, they show a still frame. Toolpaths in the black pane run once, and show their finished state with reduced motion.

Forms

This site has no forms: its buttons open the CanadaFab app or your own email app. In the app, every field has a label, and errors say what’s wrong and how to fix it, with an icon and the word Error, never colour alone.

Known gaps

The French pages are drafts for a certified translator. No independent audit has been done yet; we’ll book one and list what it finds here, with its date.

Tell us

If something doesn’t work for you, write to info@canadafab.ca in English or French. Say which page and what happened; we’ll fix it and note the fix here.
