Founder and president Marc Lacasse suffered a severe stroke waking up on a day meant for family skiing, which temporarily left him unable to speak and paralyzed on his left side.

The event turned into a true miracle: just 12 hours after being admitted to the emergency room, everything returned to normal. It was this second chance at life that gave birth to the idea of Go Rampe.

Being alongside the care staff and seeing them make a positive difference in patients’ lives deeply marked the founder. This spirit of mutual aid, which he has carried since childhood, drove him to want to make a concrete difference in the daily lives of people with disabilities.

Go Rampe grew thanks to a wonderful team of people who share the same values of mutual aid. Every member plays a unique, admirable role, working every day with pride to offer a better life to their clients.

This account is signed by Marc Lacasse, founder and president of Go Rampe inc. His story was in fact featured in an article titled “Il donne au suivant” (“Paying it forward”), published in July 2018 in the Journal de Québec and the Journal de Montréal.

Go Rampe inc.’s mission is to make places — businesses, restaurants, schools, institutions, public events or homes — accessible to everyone. The company works every day to break down architectural barriers and provide easy, safe, smooth movement, to make a concrete difference in the lives of people with disabilities or reduced mobility.

Go Rampe inc.’s values rest on the following pillars: Mutual aid and kindness (putting people at the heart of our actions); Gratitude and solidarity (Paying it forward); Safety and reliability (certified, high-quality products); Eco-responsibility (durable solutions, 100% recyclable, made in Québec/Canada); Team spirit (passionate team members united to maximize customer well-being).

Yes, all access ramps for people with reduced mobility or disabilities are taxable.

Under current tax law, a permanent ramp attached to the home is no longer considered a mobile medical device, but rather a home improvement.

So-called portable ramps and threshold ramps for people with disabilities, which are mobile and can easily be carried by one person, are not taxable.

Buying and installing a wheelchair access ramp opens the door to several tax credits that can be combined. The total credit percentage depends on your situation (age or disability), since this expense qualifies under two major streams: home accessibility and medical expenses.

If you carry out this work to adapt your principal residence, you can claim the accessibility credit. Federal: 14% of expenses (HATC, up to $20,000 of work, maximum credit of $2,800). Provincial (Québec): No identical credit, but at 70 or older, entitled to the tax credit for expenses incurred by a senior to maintain independence (20% on the portion > $250). Combined, a person 70+ gets a 34% total tax relief rate. Information provided for guidance only — eligibility determined by the Canada Revenue Agency.

This stream applies to anyone with a prescription or medical certificate. In that case, the law allows the ramp purchase to be included in both the accessibility credit and your medical expenses. The medical-expense conversion rates are as follows: Federal: 15% & Provincial (Québec): 20%. Information provided for guidance only — eligibility determined by the Canada Revenue Agency and Revenu Québec.

It is a government subsidy (managed by the Société d’habitation du Québec) to fund the installation of a ramp or interior adaptation work. Information provided for guidance only — eligibility and amounts are determined exclusively by the SHQ.

Yes, there are 2: option 1 involves support from professionals such as occupational therapists and architects. Option 2 is for people who wish to manage their own installation project themselves.

If you live in Québec, you may be eligible for government financial assistance administered by the Société d’habitation du Québec (SHQ) through the Home Adaptation Program (PAD). Source: www.quebec.ca (PAD).

An access ramp for people with disabilities; a lifting device for people with disabilities (elevating platform and stair lift); a ceiling-rail patient lift; an electric door opener; an intercom paired with an electric strike.

Any type of ramp, made of aluminum, wood, or even concrete.

There are 2 conditions: the ramp must be built to the requirements of the National Building Code (NBC 2020), and it must be installed by a construction contractor holding a valid Régie du bâtiment du Québec (RBQ) licence.

Yes, Go Rampe has held a valid general contractor licence since 2014, number 5695-2260-01. And a specialized RBQ 14.2 licence for installing lifting devices, such as stair lifts and elevating platforms.

The person must be recognized as having a disability (an impairment causing significant, persistent incapacity) under the Act. Their situation must require eligible work (e.g., a ramp). Finally, they must reside in Québec and hold Canadian citizenship or permanent resident status.

The home must be the person’s principal residence, located in Québec, safe and sanitary. Certain specific types are eligible (family-type resource, certified private seniors’ residence of 9 people or fewer). Two homes may be eligible in cases of shared custody or studies (min. 100 days/year each).

Seasonal homes (unless a principal residence for 12 months), exclusively commercial use (hotel, motel), belonging to public institutions, seniors’ residences of more than 9 people or uncertified, and homes under construction (except option 2).

Having received a PAD subsidy less than 3 years ago for the same home (except end-of-life replacement of a device); A home used as a cottage; If the owner defaulted on obligations following formal notice in the previous 2 years; Having benefited from the PAD or AccèsLogis within the last 5 years (except exceptions).

Yes, under conditions: Replacing a device or ramp at the end of its useful life; A significant change in medical condition creating a new need (if the last payment was between Sept 2018 and March 2023); Having to move for major reasons (family, work, eviction).

The DTC (federal form T2201) recognizes a severe and prolonged impairment, certified by a doctor. It is not paid toward a ramp purchase, but it unlocks eligibility for the Home Accessibility Tax Credit (HATC) and is transferable to a caregiver. Information provided for guidance only — eligibility determined by the Canada Revenue Agency.

On assessment by a CLSC occupational therapist, the Daily Living Aids program (RAMQ/CLSC) can provide removable or portable ramps, often at no cost to the recipient. A permanent exterior ramp like ours is not covered by this program, though — it falls instead under the PAD or tax credits. Information provided for guidance only, subject to CLSC assessment.

If your reduced mobility results from a road accident (SAAQ), a work injury (CNESST) or a crime (IVAC), adapting your home — ramp included — may be covered by the relevant compensation board, with no fixed cap but subject to prior authorization. We provide the documentation needed for your file. Information provided for guidance only — eligibility determined by the paying organization.

Yes: the Veterans Independence Program (VIP) from Veterans Affairs Canada pays up to $7,883.78 per year per residence (2026) for home adaptation, including a wheelchair access ramp, for eligible veterans. Information provided for guidance only — eligibility determined by Veterans Affairs Canada.

Yes: the City of Montréal’s Universal Accessibility Grant for Businesses covers up to 90% of eligible costs (max $40,000) to make a business accessible — ramps and platforms included. Applications are accepted until December 31, 2026; this program replaces the former PEA, which ended March 31, 2026. Information provided for guidance only — eligibility determined by the City of Montréal.

The Tourism Establishments Accessibility Program (PAET), managed by Kéroul on behalf of Tourisme Québec, funds up to 65% of eligible expenses (Stream 1 up to $100,000, Stream 2 up to $50,000) to make a tourism establishment accessible — ramps are eligible. Information provided for guidance only — eligibility determined by Kéroul.

Yes: accessibility expenses for a commercial building (including a ramp) can be deducted as capital expenses through the Capital Cost Allowance (CCA), under the Income Tax Act. Consult your accountant to confirm your eligibility. Information provided for guidance only — this does not constitute tax advice.

Yes: the Enabling Accessibility Fund (EAF) from Employment and Social Development Canada funds accessibility projects in community spaces and workplaces, including ramp installation. Project calls are periodic — the 2026 call is closed; watch for the next one. Information provided for guidance only — eligibility determined by ESDC.

Yes, a modular ramp can be installed in any season. Since there is no need to dig to install these structures, it is enough to clear the snow from the ground contact points and it is done.

Absolutely. The ramp’s layout is custom-fitted to the realities and obstacles present at the building’s entrance. The other option is to cut down trees and shrubs, if the homeowners wish.

Access ramps rest directly on the existing ground. Ground movement caused by freezing and thawing has very little, if any, effect on the ramp. The leg height can also be easily adjusted thanks to our sliding-leg system.

Not at all. The ramps are self-supporting and simply rest on the ground (no holes, no piles, no permanent damage). If you move, the ramp can easily be taken down and reinstalled elsewhere, passed on, or sold.

The advantages of treated wood are its lower purchase cost compared to aluminum, steel or concrete; its warm, natural finish that blends with the existing surroundings; and the option to be painted or stained to match the home.

The main drawbacks are its limited lifespan (10 to 15 years); the fact that it becomes very slippery when wet, icy or snowy; and its zero value at end of life since it is neither reusable nor recyclable, which fills up landfills.

Optimal value for money (sturdy, no maintenance, won’t rust/rot); 100% recyclable and eco-friendly; the safest and most durable solution for Québec’s harsh climate. It is self-supporting, installs in winter without foundations, comes apart easily if you move, and keeps excellent resale value on the secondhand market.

Its higher initial cost, its more industrial or medical look, and the grey metal surface, which can reflect light intensely and be glaring to the eyes.

Eco-friendly option: Use sand or fine gravel for good traction without chemicals. To de-ice at very low temperatures (down to -30°C), favour calcium or potassium chloride, which are effective and gentler on the alloy.

Standard road salt (sodium chloride / blue or white salt) should be avoided. It is highly corrosive and will eventually dull, stain and corrode the aluminum over the winters.

Treated wood suits tight budgets or temporary needs requiring a warm look. Aluminum remains the best long-term choice: although pricier upfront, it pays for itself in 5 to 7 years (savings on staining, zero maintenance) and offers a safe investment thanks to its high resale value.

Yes, absolutely. We offer solutions combining the warmth and beauty of wood for the floor and guardrails, with our adjustable aluminum leg system to protect the structure from damp ground.
