Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA)
New NEXUS pages to go live December 1. Issuing related news release on December 2.
Digital Transformation Office (DTO)
- Presentation on new accessibility template
- It’s a good idea to have a link to the feedback process from within your accessibility plan.
- Note: separate 48-hour reporting requirements after publication of accessibility plans and feedback processes outlined in the presentation
- Departments can add more things to these designs
- The template will also likely evolve as the Information and communications technologies (ICT) standards come into effect next year
- As you publish your accessibility sections and people submit feedback we want to hear how things are going
- We plan to do user testing as well so we can iterate
- Will eventually integrate the accessibility templates into the Pattern and Template library so it is properly documented and available through the Web Experience Toolkit
- Open Government will look at writing a standard description for all accessibility plans and create a collection for accessibility plans and their related reports so they are a searchable collection
- Discussion around double H1s in general on web pages and whether they are allowed. DTO will look at this and come back to the community with some clarification.
- New footer is being soft launched
- Go to design.canada.ca and search Global footer
- Please do not implement this on your websites yet
- Go through the documentation, look at the code, digest it over the next few weeks, come to us with any questions
- For departments with contextualized Contact links in the current footer, Principal Publisher will reach out to you about how to implement the contextual band
- We will release timeframes for implementation shortly, along with the research summary and blog post related to the footer
- We are hoping to create an implementation window so that all departments can implement around the same time, likely in mid or late January
