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

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 :(

@IKEACanada I know you can't cater to everyone, but having on hand a current book with ingredients (like was posted) would be handy. Had asked in years previous for such n was told it didn't exist. I also didn't remember seeing ingredient list on the site itself.

[Nyx Cole @Nyxks]

@IKEACanada what the world? I asked to confirm (after being forced to order at the kiosk) that the listed Plant Based Strawberry frozen Dessert is in fact #dairyfree and the server said that no it contains dairy!!!! #allergy #fail
If actually wrong, then train your staff better

[Nyx Cole @Nyxks]

@IKEACanada I didn't consume it, wasn't taking the chance (a er run is not something I care to endure). I wish your store had more safe options that was clearly stated for those living with multiple allergies n medical (celiac prevents me from consuming majority of your menu) 1/2

@IKEACanada Sorry for late response it was IKEA North York - 15 Provost Drive, North York (think it was the first location built in the GTA).

#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.

[Nyx Cole @Nyxks]

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

[Nyx Cole @Nyxks]

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.
