Information
The Canadian Paraplegic Association (CPA) can provide a wealth
of information on travelling in specific provinces, and most
of its regional offices produce a free guide on the most easily
accessed sights. Provincial tourist offices are also excellent
sources of information on accessible hotels, motels and sights. You
may also want to get in touch with Kéroul in Montréal, an
organization that specializes in travel for mobility-impaired
people, and publishes the bilingual guide Accès Tourisme
(C$15 plus $3 postage). Twin Peaks Press, PO Box 129, Vancouver,
Washington (tel 1-800/637-2256 or 360/694-2462) also publishes
useful guides: the Directory of Travel Agencies for the
Disabled (US$19.95), which lists more than 370 agencies
worldwide, Travel for the Disabled (US$19.95) and
Wheelchair Vagabond (US$14.95), as well as directories for
accessible-van rental companies and cruise, ferry, river and
canal-barge guides for the physically handicapped.
