CNIB is no longer involved in White Cane Week. It's another organization called the Canadian Council of the Blind. I believe they are still doing some information provision to the grade schools.
I know what you're talking about. Years ago I worked in Halifax, and we used to have the kids come in every year during White Cane Week. We took them on a tour, to show them how to use a white cane and that sort of thing. One time we had emergency vehicles arrive twice because one of the little persons discovered that 9-1-1 worked on the pay phone during the tour. That's a little aside.
