AMI-télé’s current French-language site describes programming centered on Canadians with disabilities and links viewers to AMI+, television-channel information and reporting on YouTube. Its accessibility resources also distinguish video description from captions. Those are different tools for different viewing needs.
Start with whether you need a French program, the running television channel or an explanation of an accessibility feature. The same AMI-télé site supports all three, but they lead to different references.

Use AMI+ for the selected program route
The official Comment nous capter page identifies AMI+ as a free accessible streaming destination bringing French and English programs together. The French site’s Nos émissions link also leads there. That is a more current program-discovery reference than assuming every older standalone application instruction still describes the present destination.
Because the collection is bilingual, preserve the actual program title and language selection. A French navigation page is a useful starting point, while the individual title identifies the program you intend to choose.
Video description and captions convey different information
AMI-télé’s media-accessibility page explains video description as conveying visual elements through sound. It separately describes captions as a text representation of dialogue. One can therefore help with visual action while the other supplies written spoken content; neither label should be substituted for the other.
Identify which information you need before choosing a resource. If a scene’s action is unclear, the description reference is relevant. If the question concerns written dialogue, use the caption information. The distinction makes an accessibility inquiry more precise than saying only that an episode is “accessible.”
The television channel finder remains a separate route
AMI-télé’s viewing page offers television information separately from AMI+ and YouTube. Use the television channel reference when looking for the scheduled broadcast service. Use the program collection when selecting an installment or returning to a particular story.
The site also points to reporting about disability experiences across Canada. A short report can introduce a subject without being the same item as a complete series episode. Keep the exact title and format when saving material so you can return to the French program, report or accessibility explanation you actually wanted.
