With the Canada Line, there are even tactile-wayfinding-tiles. We can't do anything else, other than installing platform screen doors, which isn't really possible on the Expo & Millennium Lines.

The platform has the special tiles but it didn't prevent the man from falling onto the track. Since the train was stationary, I suspect he simple misjudged the position of the train door. Too bad with the different type of MK train, the door position is not always at the same spot on the platform.
