A new initiative in Prince George, British Columbia, is increasing accessibility through a 3D accessible map. 🗺️

Developed in partnership with Spinal Cord Injury BC, the tool will help residents and visitors navigate important spaces across the city. The map will include details such as accommodation options, outdoor trails and marking public transportation stations.

The map also integrates feedback from individuals with disabilities to ensure data is accurate and give users a clear understanding of accessibility before they visit.

Learn more about the map and its creation in the full story.

An accessible bus is bringing a newfound freedom to seniors in Gjoa Haven. 🚌

Equipped with a hydraulic lift and space for 12 seated passengers and four wheelchairs, the new bus was funded through the Kitikmeot Inuit Association’s Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program. The bus is also part of a broad municipal priority in the “Supporting Our Elders” section of the hamlet’s strategic plan.

“I think it’s finally an opportunity to really treat our elders the way we would like to, with respect and inclusivity,” said Jennifer Wakegijig, chief administrative officer at Hamlet of Gjoa Haven. “There are so many barriers to them really enjoying all the beautiful things that happen in our community.”

Becoming a doctor is no easy feat. Sleepless nights, rigorous study sessions and grueling clinical rotations are just some of the many factors that deter most from considering a career in the medical field.

But for Kendra Hebert, a career as a doctor had been a lifelong dream. Now a third-year medical student at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Hebert aspires to be the mentor and role model she once needed when she began her medical career.

“Being the first can feel isolating and overwhelming. But it can also feel extraordinary,” she writes.

What are the dimensions and features of your wheelchair?

Will you be driving the vehicle independently or are you looking for a vehicle that you can be a passenger in?

Do you want a transfer seat or will you be driving while in your wheelchair or another mobility device?

Each of these questions must be evaluated before you can determine whether you are best suited for a side or rear entry vehicle, as well as any additional structural modifications.

A newly developed web application aims to assist hikers with disabilities in finding accessible trails.

Developed based on an idea by the Canadian Disabled Outdoor Society, Inclusive Trails allows users to know a trail’s accessibility. The app tracks a trail’s steepness, the width of its path and if there are any hazards such as steps or tree routes that may make hiking difficult. It also provides information on what services are available, such as accessible toilets and parking locations.
