Scanner columns show raw failures; the Total column remains unique across the active scanners. | Page | axe Errors | QualWeb Errors | Total Unique | Page Title | |---|---:|---:|---:|---| | [View Page](https://www.canada.ca/en.html) | 1 | 0 | **1** | Home - Canada.ca | ## 🧭 Reflow Risk (WCAG 1.4.10) Page-level indicator: resizes to 320 CSS pixels wide and checks for horizontal overflow. This is a risk indicator, not a conformance verdict — see [Behavioral Accessibility Automation](https://github.com/mgifford/ACCESSIBILITY.md/blob/main/examples/BEHAVIORAL_ACCESSIBILITY_AUTOMATION.md) for what it can and cannot detect. ✅ No horizontal overflow detected at 320px width on any scanned page! ## 🏷️ Semantic HTML & ARIA (Semantica11y) Checks for non-semantic HTML and ARIA usage with suggestions for semantic improvements. These are suggestions, not WCAG conformance failures — see [semantica11y](https://npm.im/semantica11y) for the rule set. | Page | Errors | Warnings | Suggestions | Corroborated | Page Title | |---|---|---|---|---|---| | [View Page](https://www.canada.ca/en.html) | 0 | 66 | 0 | - | Home - Canada.ca | ## 🔧 Most Common Issues (ALFA) These ALFA accessibility issues appear most frequently across your pages: ✅ No ALFA failed rules detected! ## 🔧 Most Common Issues (axe) These axe accessibility issues appear most frequently across your pages: | Rule | Pages Affected | Documentation | |---|---:|---| | landmark-unique | **1** of 8 | [View Rule](https://dequeuniversity.com/rules/axe/4.12.1/landmark-unique) | > 💡 **Tip**: Click on the rule documentation links to learn how to fix each issue.

Each issue appears to be page-specific. ## 📊 Detailed Results Complete scan results for all tested pages: | Submitted URL | Final URL | Status | HTTP | Redirected | Time (ms) | axe Errors | ALFA Errors | Equal Access Errors | AccessLint Errors | Duplicates | Notes | |---|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|---| | https://canada.ca | https://canada.ca/ | FAIL | - | no | 60002 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | URL scan exceeded 60s timeout | | https://canada.ca/etc/designs/canada/wet-boew/css/theme.min.css | https://www.canada.ca/etc/designs/canada/wet-boew/css/theme.min.css | OK | 200 | yes | 9872 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | Skipped (not requested) | | https://canada.ca/etc/designs/canada/wet-boew/css/noscript.min.css | https://www.canada.ca/etc/designs/canada/wet-boew/css/noscript.min.css | OK | 200 | yes | 1374 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | Skipped (not requested) | | https://canada.ca/etc/designs/canada/wet-boew/css/messages.min.css | https://www.canada.ca/etc/designs/canada/wet-boew/css/messages.min.css | OK | 200 | yes | 2382 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | Skipped (not requested) | | https://canada.ca/en.html | https://www.canada.ca/en.html | OK | 200 | yes | 59930 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | Skipped (not requested) | | | | | | | | | | | | axe failed rules: landmark-unique | | https://canada.ca/fr.html | https://canada.ca/fr.html | FAIL | - | no | 60001 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | URL scan exceeded 60s timeout | | https://canada.ca/en/transparency/terms.html | https://canada.ca/en/transparency/terms.html | FAIL | - | no | 60002 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | URL scan exceeded 60s timeout | | https://canada.ca/fr/transparence/avis.html | https://canada.ca/fr/transparence/avis.html | FAIL | - | no | 60001 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | URL scan exceeded 60s timeout | ## Detailed Failure Information (ALFA) ## Detailed Failure Information (axe) ### https://canada.ca/en.html #### Rule: [landmark-unique](https://dequeuniversity.com/rules/axe/4.12/landmark-unique?application=playwright) **Impact**: moderate **Failure 1:** - First identified: 2026-10-31 - Message: Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination - HTML: `
