Baby car seat question for Canada?
Find answers to your legal question.

Im having problems with my daughter fitting properly we had her in the rear facing infant carrier/seat that has the base that stays in the car but then her feet were almost touching the back of the seat wich i think i was told that wasent good because there legs could break in an accident, and also the straps were loosend to max and it was hard to get her arms through because they were tight so we changed car seats to the cosco scenera and put it in rear facing and proped it up with a towel and her feet are touching the back seat like she can dig her feet in the seat if she stretched out also i find the straps to be hard to pull on this seat but i dont have the money to buy another seat. I know she cant be frontfacing untill she is a year old, she is 27 1/2 inches long and 19 lbs 7 months old. Just wondering what you would do or suggestions?

You should go by your local fire department. They will be able to assess the car seat, and check to see if there are anythings that you could deal with this problem. You don't want to risk your daughter's life, and this would be the best way.
