How Rating & Certification has helped others

Accessibility is one of our top priorities and is a key part of our success as a world-class hub. Gold Certification from the Rick Hansen Foundation is a testament to our ongoing efforts to better serve our passengers, partners and communities—and is a milestone we are very proud of.

Every day, the Cowbell team strives to make the Cowbell Farm a welcoming, exciting and accessible space for team members and guests, regardless of their ability. The Rick Hansen Foundation is a leader for creating and promoting inclusive spaces and we are honoured to receive this recognition from them.

“We want to be leading in everything we do and be an example for not only our community, but cities across Canada. We have an excellent building code, but it doesn’t go far enough. There are lots of gaps that aren’t understood, and having RHFAC in policy will help push us forward and make accessibility normal practice in our buildings.”
