Well that was a great start to Tuesday. The Terry Fox original Ford van has finally made it to the North Shore!
Chris Carter and his spouse Rebecca, along with the vollies from Scotia McLeod and friends did a great job to organize and serve Tim Bits and coffee to morning commuters, right to their cars. We had Mayor Mussatto and others doing the serving and the police did a great job with traffic management. Chris has a large number of friends and associates from various past sports and careers and when he gives a call we all chip in.
Terry's brother Darrell showed me that great Canadian icon the van, which looked like it was off the showroom floor and must have had some good craftsmen keeping it that way. Also another great Canadian icon, Rick Hansen (yes Rick, an icon) took the time from his busy schedule to attend. We Canadians think of the two marathoners in the same thoughts so it was nice to hear Rick's thoughts about the Marathon of Hope again. Good luck, Darrell on your Tour of Hope!
