Blogger Cory Lee on press tour in Quebec

To promote accessible tourism in Quebec, Kéroul recently welcomed Cory Lee, the blogger behind Curb Free with Cory Lee. The 27-year-old American with spinal muscular atrophy is rolling around the world with his motorized wheelchair, resourcefulness and a sense of humour. His passage through La belle province was a huge success. The warm welcome he received from Quebecers had a very positive impact on his brief, colourful stay! Cory testifies : « Thank you for organizing such an incredible trip. (…) I'm so happy that we were able to see your part of the world. It's a stunning area and definitely has a lot to offer. »

In the course of five days, Cory Lee had the opportunity to make quick stops in the Laurentians, Québec City, Wendake and Montréal. It was a whirlwind visit that combined a perfect balance of nature, urbanity, traditions and innovation.
