Over the next 10 years, people with disabilities will make up 21% of the consumer market in Canada. Together, this group will spend more than $316 billion every year.
Two out of every 3 people with disabilities say they would spend more money at restaurants, hotels, and entertainment venues if these places were more accessible.
