Celebrating Accessibility In The Great Outdoors
It was my pleasure to hike on Saturday September 16th with the MPP for Scarborough North & Minister for Seniors and Accessibility, Raymond Cho, along with Ksenia Khan, Director of Programming for Parkbus, her team members and guests, at the beautiful Tiffin Centre for Conservation.

Ksenia Khan was our guide as we explored the many forest trails, stopping along the way to take in the incredible scenery and to pause for quiet reflection. Parkbus connects city dwellers with nature by providing accessible transportation to National and Provincial Parks across Canada.
Parkbus has launched ActiveDays, a community program that offers guided group day hikes. ActiveDays is all about building a passionate outdoor community that’s welcoming to everyone, including newcomers, low-income families, and members of visible minorities.
Thank you to everyone for making today’s hike so enjoyable!

… Minister Cho shared a special gift with everyone, a massive belly laugh! And then we were good to go hiking!
