About the survey
The Canadian Survey on Disability (CSD) is one of the most comprehensive national surveys on Canadians aged 15 and older whose everyday activities are limited because of a long-term condition or health-related problem. It provides valuable insights about the lived experiences, challenges and well-being of persons with disabilities.
Why should I participate?
Your answers represent those of other Canadians just like you. Your participation is essential to ensure that the data are as complete as possible!
The information you provide will help guide decisions about policies, programs and services designed to improve the lives of persons with disabilities.
With your support, we can move one step closer to a barrier-free Canada.
