The Enabled Canada Tour
A National Movement for Inclusive Innovation.
From Toronto to Thunder Bay. Mississauga to Markham. Guelph to
Sudbury. We're hitting the road to spark real conversations, build local partnerships, and
open doors to inclusive employment and accessibility across Canada.
Why We’re Touring Canada ?
Across Canada, people with disabilities still face hidden barriers to employment. Enabled Talent is on a mission to change that—through action, not words. This tour brings us to communities to listen, learn, and co-build an inclusive employment and innovation ecosystem, city by city
Bridging the Gap

Accessible Innovation
Creating technology and solutions that work for everyone isn't just the right thing to do—it's better business and drives innovation.
