Brutal..........That's the reaction of John Campbell, one of the candidates running for the Conservative nomination in Saint John Harbour, to spending yesterday trying to get about the city in a manual wheelchair. Campbell tells CHSJ News he found out trying to use a public washroom is a challenge even with the stalls that are geared for wheelchairs........They're just not big enough and wheelchairs are now custom made.
Campbell also found trying to make the hills in the city tough but also discovered alot of well meaning people who are more than willing to help. He says all new construction should be wheelchair accesssible as a matter of course. The 52 year old Campbell concedes his fingers are torn up and his shoulders along with his chest are hurting after his ordeal.
