Likely the most inspiring, motivating story of a Canadian Hero, Terry Fox.

I was fortunate to have the opportunity to meet Terry Fox before he passed. One of my favorite quotes of his, and the one that has inspired me and stayed with me – “Each one of us has the ability to create change in the world we live in.”
