Petition against the decision of the RAMQ to impose a maximum speed limit of 10km/h for their motorized wheelchairs

Published by Association des paraplégiques du Québec on Jul 09, 2009

I, the signer of this petition, do not agree with the decision of the RAMQ to impose a maximum speed limit of 10km/h for users of motorized wheelchairs awarded by its program. This restrictive measure totaly impedes the freedom and autonomy of handicaped people.

In addition, like many others, I regret that this measure was implemented unilaterally, without consulting the people who will suffer the effects.

Thus, I ask respectfully to suspend the application of this measure so that a public consultation process can be established in good and due form in order to allow the people, especially persons with disabilities affected by the measure, to decide on the merits of this measure in a more democratic fashion.
