I wonder if anyone is aware of ramps for wheelchairs and the duty of the owners?

I lived in the same apartment for seven years. Since we've lived here my wife and I have practically become wheelchair. I asked my landlord for us to build a ramp that allows us access to housing, but he changed the subject. As such, I leave my scooter specially designed wheelchair and my wife $ 10,000 $ 4000 in a small shed essentially unprotected every night and have no mobility in attendance, except for our walkers. The owner has a legal obligation to build a ramp for us, or we are left with the passage of a house we really like otherwise? We simply can not afford to build ourselves and we discussed all the service clubs, but have come to the brick walls. I forgot to mention that I live in Ontario, Canada. Thanks

In the U.S. we have what we call Americans with Disabilities which provides that employers (and perhaps the owners) must comply with the provision of ramps and toilets that can accommodate employees who are in wheelchairs, giving people with disabilities the same opportunities as fully able-bodied staff. I recommend examining whether Canada has a similar law on the books. Before taking a route to court, perhaps the owner needs a financial motivation. Work a bit to see how the construction of a ramp would cost. Negotiate! If you contribute to the construction a ramp, he might trade with one or two months of living rent-free … as a way of saying "Thank you to increase the value of my property." Nobody likes having to go to court. exhaust all possibilities before hand. Good luck!
