  • A hero. An inspiration. A runner. A dreamer. Canada's Terry Fox was all these and more. His death in 1981 was mourned nationwide, and yet his legacy lives on. His Marathon of Hope inspired millions then, and still does. (Video set to Jadea Kelly's "Beauty.")

    Makes you unbelievably proud to be a Canadian. Bravery and determination you so rarely see. To think he was 22 when he died..

    Watching this in 2020, and it is still awe inspiring. I was 8 years old when he dipped his foot into the frigid North Atlantic and it still sticks with me today. Kinda grounds a person after weeks upon weeks of being bombarded with news of hate, rage, and fear regarding politics and race on social media and 24/7 mainstream news channels.

    I'm pretty disappointed that CBC couldn't be bothered to give credit to the singer/songwriter providing the lovely soundtrack. It's a fine song called Beauty by Toronto singer/songwriter Jadea Kelly. Highly recommended. itunes.apple.com/ca/album/beauty/id1111785326?i=1111785420

      It wasn't a conscious omission. But we take your point -- and have added Jadea's name to the description.

    Always, there are still a lot of countries in which disabled persons are discriminated and not supported by their state. They are left to their own devices.
    In the 50s and 60s a funny joke was circulating in post-war Germany (still!) with an American, an Englishman, a Russian, a fox terrier in the luggage net and a drink question, which at this point, with the knowledge of the ordeal of Terrance Stanley Fox, but would suddenly represent bitter, real cynicism. R.i.P. Terrance Stanley Fox.
