Would anyone know which SN seats are available in Canada? Please enlighten me.
So far, I have been told that there are 3 special needs options available if you have needs beyond the mainstream retail seats (aside from seats/carbeds for tiny babies) and that one would need a prescription from a doctor for any of these products. They are:
1. Britax Traveller Plus
http://www.adaptivemall.com/brtrpl1.html
rated 20 - 105 lbs., top shoulder strap height 18.75", so only a little taller than the Frontier
2. EZ-On Vest/Harness
I am not sure which of their products are allowed in Canada. Here's their website:
http://www.ezonpro.com/index.shtml
and note that EZ-on products are distributed in Canada by Perry Rand Transportation Group Ltd.

3. Hippo car seat for kids in Hip casts
http://www.adaptivemall.com/hippocarseat1.html
That site says they are only allowed to ship in US, and has no mention of Canada like they do for the Traveller Plus. Does that mean that the Hippo is one of those special cases where it is technically illegal but no option exists so TC will look the other way?
Please tell me if I am missing something or if I have my info wrong. Also, I would like to have a list of the infant SN seats as well, just to have for reference. Please and thank you.
