Halifax: Wheelchair Access

wheelchair access: Living in a wheelchair should not restrict ones access to enjoying life and the many events and social opportunities that are available in Halifax, according to The Chronicle Herald. Living life in a wheelchair presents many challenges and obstacles that one has to overcome, or learn to live with. But this should not mean we cannot enjoy good food and entertainment in our community and Access denied I am especially concerned about the lack of wheelchair access to the finer restaurants in downtown Halifax. Also, the downtown pubs are not wheelchair-accessible and neither are the outdoor patios during the summer months. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
