Airlines won’t let passengers use their own wheelchairs on the plane because the aisles are too narrow.

Normally the airline has transfer wheelchairs available at the gate that are designed to fit in the plane for the purpose of moving passengers on and off the plane.

It’s in the name a bit

Disabilities are one of those things we, rightfully, take making accomodations for seriously. I’ll admit I’m not familiar with Canadian law, but at least in the states, this would ABSOLUTELY be an ADA violation, for good reason, failure to make reasonable, or any, accomodation.
