How a $40 parking ticket became a fight for accessibility in Quebec

Charlie Rousseau's $40 parking ticket in Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec, has sparked a broader debate on accessibility. The ticket was issued for using an old-style parking meter that required inserting coins—a challenge for people with disabilities like Rousseau. This incident highlights the need for more inclusive infrastructure, especially in public services like parking. The case underscores how small changes can significantly impact people's daily lives, urging local authorities to consider accessibility in public amenities.
