A lesson hard learned in the Robert Dziekański case.
A side note, the main terminal complex at YVR is likely the most accessible public building in Canada. Since private management took over in 1992, great lengths have been taken to make every aspect of the domestic, transborder and international terminals accessible to those with physical, sensory or cognitive impairments. Next time you pass through, have a hard look for one of those blue 'stickmen' in a wheelchair, for example. Short of a blue painted parking space outside, I bet you can't find one.
Now...to solve the issue of access into certain common Downsview-assembled aircraft types that serve the airport.
