Federal & Provincial Government Websites
Independent automated accessibility testing of federal, provincial and territorial government portals, ranked by health score (0–100). Every portal is tested the same way, with the same tools, at a respectful crawl rate — see the full methodology. Higher scores mean fewer machine-detectable barriers for residents who use assistive technology.

Critical / serious columns count individual instances of WCAG 2.2 A/AA issues detected by automated testing, excluding issues inside embedded third-party content. Sample sizes differ (up to full-site coverage); scores are averages per page tested, so they remain comparable across sample sizes.
Insufficient data — not ranked
We publish a score only when a clean, reliable test sample was completed. These government portals could not be reliably tested — usually because the website's security system blocks automated tools. Blocking automated tools is a legitimate security choice and implies nothing about how accessible a website is.
