And shout out to Ability New Brunswick Inc. / Capacité Nouveau-Brunswick Inc. for offering such an incredible program

“It really works to Charlene’s advantage. There’s no longer any trouble for her to get into the seat. And it’s a lot safer." – Louis LeBlanc

Louis and Charlene’s story: Making it easier to hit the open road

When Charlene LeBlanc began using a wheelchair about three years ago, she and her husband, Louis, knew that it would eventually become a challenge to help her in and out of their van.

For a while, Louis managed the process of helping to lift and guide Charlene from her wheelchair into her seat. But as Charlene lost some of her strength, it became more challenging and risky, with Louis sometimes needing assistance.

“It wasn't good for her, and it wasn't good for me,” Louis recalls. He didn’t want to lose the ability to take Charlene for drives, whether to go shopping or just to get out for a cruise. “We had to do something.”

Seeking a solution, he contacted Ability New Brunswick. The LeBlancs, who live in Dieppe, quickly learned that they were an ideal fit for the province’s Vehicle Retrofit Program. The program, administered by Ability New Brunswick, covers up to 80 per cent of the cost of adding eligible accessibility features to a vehicle, to a maximum grant of $8,000.

“They explained the program and walked me through the process. It was very quick. Within a week I had the approval,” Louis says.

Six weeks later – in September of 2025 – their van had been retro-fitted with an Adapt Solutions Link seat, which extends out from the vehicle and lowers to the level of Charlene’s wheelchair, making it much easier for her to get into the van.

“It really works to Charlene’s advantage,” Louis explains. “There’s no longer any trouble for her to get into the seat. And it’s a lot safer."

There was only one small wrinkle: the Link seat would only fit in the back of the van, meaning Charlene can’t sit in the front anymore.

“So I’m a taxi driver now,” Louis says with a laugh.

“And I feel like Miss Daisy,” Charlene adds.

Jokes aside, the LeBlancs say the retro-fit program has made a difference in their daily lives.

“And we couldn't have gotten it without Ability New Brunswick,” Louis says. “It’s as easy as calling Ability New Brunswick and asking some questions.”

« C’est vraiment un avantage pour Charlene. On n’a plus de problème à la transférer sur son siège. Et c’est beaucoup plus sécuritaire. » – Louis LeBlanc

Histoire de Louis et Charlene : Prendre la route plus facilement

Quand Charlene LeBlanc a commencé à se déplacer en fauteuil roulant, il y a trois ans, son mari, Louis, et elle savaient qu’il serait éventuellement difficile de l’aider à embarquer et débarquer de leur minifourgonnette.

Pendant un certain temps, Louis s’est débrouillé pour aider Charlene à se soulever et à passer de son fauteuil à son siège. Mais Charlene a perdu un peu de force, le transfert est devenu plus difficile et risqué, et Louis avait parfois besoin d’aide.

« Ce n’était pas bon pour elle, et ce n’était pas bon pour moi », se rappelle Louis. Il ne voulait pas perdre la possibilité d’amener Charlene se promener, que ce soit pour aller magasiner ou tout simplement pour prendre la route. « Nous devions faire quelque chose. »

À la recherche d’une solution, il a communiqué avec Capacité NB. Les LeBlanc, qui vivent à Dieppe, ont vite appris que leur situation correspondait parfaitement aux critères du Programme de véhicules adaptés provincial. Le Programme, administré par Capacité NB, couvre en effet un maximum de 80 % du coût des dispositifs d’accessibilité admissibles ajoutés à un véhicule, jusqu’à concurrence de 8 000 $.

« Ils m’ont expliqué le Programme et accompagné dans le processus de demande. Tout a été rapide. En une semaine, j’avais l’approbation », commente Louis.

Six semaines plus t**d, en septembre 2025, on avait installé un siège Link, d’Adapt Solutions, dans leur minifourgonnette. Ce siège sort du véhicule et s’abaisse jusqu’à la hauteur du fauteuil roulant de Charlene, ce qui facilite son transfert dans la minifourgonnette.

« C’est vraiment un avantage pour Charlene, explique Louis. On n’a plus de problème à la transférer sur son siège. Et c’est beaucoup plus sécuritaire. »
Mais il y a un petit hic : le siège Link pouvait seulement être installé à l’arrière du véhicule, ce qui signifie que Charlene ne peut plus s’asseoir à l’avant.

« Donc, je suis maintenant chauffeur de taxi », rigole Louis.

« Et je me sens comme Miss Daisy », ajoute Charlene.

Blague à part, les LeBlanc considèrent que le Programme de véhicules adaptés change leur quotidien.

« Et nous n’aurions pas eu le siège sans Capacité NB, termine Louis. Ce n’est pas plus difficile que d’appeler Capacité NB et de poser quelques questions. »
