Yep, that is what I have heard.  I have sent an email to Cindy asking for clarification.

I have watched it several times and don't see him using a cane.

I hope you are all doing well. Many of you know that I spent some time In
Minneapolis at BLIND, Inc. A fellow student is a talented musician, and has
since made a video for a contest that Minneapolis Metro Transit is holding.
His job was to create a video and a jingle about Minneapolis Metro Transit.
So, he produced the video, and it serves as a great example of a competent
blind person using public transportation. During the video, he is shown
using a cane and navigating a Minneapolis Metro Transit bus. If he wins,
this video will be widespread, and many people will be able to see this
positive portrayal of blindness. So if you don't mind, if you could take a
second and click the link below, you can vote. His video is the 4th one and
called Go Metro! If you click the link, you will be directed to a page with
5 check boxes for voting, and you can also watch each video in the running.
I appreciate your assistance in an attempt to further spread a positive view
of blindness. I think that if you close and reopen your web browser, you can
vote again. So if you really want him to win, you can bookmark the page and
return to it every once in a while to vote again.

Thank you.
