After he left Toronto he headed off towards Oakville, back then there was more forest and grasslands between Mississauga and Oakville ,more or less, I was 12 and was at a park and I was either coming or going but by a fluke I saw Terry running down the street alone with one or two cars following behind, his entourage, well I realized who it was and then I was doing a double take and as he went by me I said HI and he said hi and touched my hand. I yelled something like good luck and he waved back as he kept going. I never forgot that. He was a great Canadian, maybe the quintessential Canadian, maybe the greatest Canadian.

one of our Greatest Canadian
The fact the Queen is on our currency but not Terry Fox is still baffling to me
An amazing Canadian!!!
Gives me goosebumps ☺️
The legend!
Kids learn about him for a few hours a year. He needs to be plastered all over the classrooms. Absolute legend. In her early 20s!!
I’m graduating high school this year, trust me every year I’ve been in school we had a whole day to learn and honour him
Damn
And then they took him off the passport, typical canada.
