Got to love riding the #TTC in a wheelchair. It isn't the better way by any means, but its better then not being able to leave your home n be independent.

If you are a #wheelchair user and going to CF Fairview Mall know that their "wheelchair accessible" bathrooms in the food court are NOT actually wheelchair accessible unless you are a ambulatory user. #AODA #Fail

#TTC #FAIL would be nice if drivers when asked at a station if x bus is going to y location that they actually tell u that it's just x number of drop off points instead of saying other side n posting across the way when in reality it was just 3 stalls over as a #wheelchair moves.

Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend and are staying safe. Lots going on around here, but needless to say yes am still around just not overly active like I once was :(

Inaccessibility that keeps out disabled people is not a mistake. It is a choice. A choice to exclude disabled people.
