Where to buy crutches in Canada

359 businesses across 224 Ontario towns and cities are registered with the province's Assistive Devices Program to supply ambulation aids: the category Ontario funds forearm crutches and wheeled walkers under. Their addresses and phone numbers are below, by town.

Ontario only, for now. It is the one province that publishes an open vendor register we are allowed to reuse. 12 other provinces and territories publish nothing equivalent, so listing them would mean inventing coverage we do not have.

Every Ontario town an ADP-registered vendor gives an address in, alphabetically, with the number of businesses listed there. A town with no registered vendor of its own is not on this list, and the town pages name the closest ones that do have one.

Or order a pair to your door

We are Millennial Medical, the makers of the in-Motion Pro: a spring-assisted forearm crutch built for daily long-term use, shipped from our own store in the United States. That is the other half of this question, and these pages cover it.

Where this list comes from, and what it does not tell you

Canada. Every business is on the Assistive Devices Program vendor lists published by the Government of Ontario, read on : 1,866 vendors in 224 towns, 359 of them registered under the programme's Ambulation Aids category, which is the one Ontario funds forearm crutches and wheeled walkers under. Registration is permission to supply, not a record of having supplied.

Being listed is not a stock check, in either country. No public register says who has a pair of forearm crutches on the shelf this morning, so this one cannot either. Phone first. The numbers here are the ones the registers publish.

What is left out. Only Ontario is covered: Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Northwest Territories, Nova Scotia, Nunavut, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, Saskatchewan, Yukon publish no equivalent open vendor register, so listing them would mean inventing coverage we do not have.

This directory is published by the makers of in-Motion crutches. We do not charge for a listing, we take nothing when you call one of these businesses, and no business on this page has paid to be here or to be placed higher. The order is fixed: documented for walking aids first, then by how much else is documented, then alphabetical.

Questions about this directory

Does being listed mean the shop has crutches in stock?

No. The Assistive Devices Program publishes which businesses are registered to supply each category of equipment, not what any of them has on the shelf on a given day. No public list in Canada carries stock. Treat the list as who to phone, and phone before travelling.

A vendor near me is not on the Ambulation Aids list. Does that mean they cannot help?

Not necessarily. The list records which categories a vendor is registered with the programme to supply. A shop can be the right place to phone without being registered for that category, or without being an ADP vendor at all. It tells you where to start, not where to stop.

Why is only Ontario covered?

Ontario publishes its Assistive Devices Program vendor lists as open data that can be reused commercially with attribution. Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick and the rest publish no equivalent register, so there is no honest source to build their pages from. If that changes, they get added.

Does the Ontario programme pay for forearm crutches?

Yes. Ontario's mobility aids page names forearm crutches among the devices it helps pay for, alongside wheeled walkers, manual and power wheelchairs, and positioning devices. It explicitly does not cover standard walking canes, non-wheeled walkers or transport chairs. You need to be an Ontario resident with a physical disability expected to last six months or longer, and the device has to be bought from a registered vendor like the ones listed here. The programme pays a share of an approved price, not the whole cost. Amounts and criteria are set by the Ministry of Health and change, so check the ministry page before counting on a figure.

Why does a crutch manufacturer publish a directory of other suppliers?

Because most people who need a pair are choosing between a local counter and ordering online, and the local option is genuinely hard to find written down anywhere. We would rather be the page that answers the whole question. We make the in-Motion Pro and sell it from our own store, we take nothing when you call a business on this list, and no listing is for sale.

How do I get a business added, corrected or removed?

Every entry comes from the Government of Ontario's published vendor lists, so a correction has to happen at the source: contact the Assistive Devices Program and the change reaches this page the next time the lists are rebuilt. Email us at customerservice@millennialmedical.com if a listing is wrong here but right there.
