Are you talking about on this page?

Resources and Tools - Digital Accessibility Toolkit or Additional Resources - Digital Accessibility Toolkit.

Can you also create a document with the changes you like us to make?

Thanks 😄

@shawnthompson , just add the link to the Additional Resources - Digital Accessibility Toolkit and also on that page Designing accessible services

the title and the link should be A Way with Words and Images the description : Suggestions for the portrayal of people with disabilities. People with disabilities are asking Canadians, and the media in particular, to use respectful terms when writing and speaking about them or about issues that affect their lives. They are also asking that images chosen to portray them be respectful and not reinforce outdated stereotypes.

Here is the French version I will be using:

Le pouvoir des mots et des images Suggestions pour la représentation des personnes en situation de handicap. Les personnes en situation de handicap demandent aux Canadiens, et aux médias en particulier, d'utiliser des termes respectueux lorsqu'ils écrivent et parlent d'elles ou des questions qui les concernent. Elles demandent également que les images choisies pour les représenter soient respectueuses et ne renforcent pas des stéréotypes dépassés.

Keep in mind the page we are linking to is using "personnes handicapées" instead of "personnes en situation de handicap".
