(Photo by Gibb) .4( 4.• Oddi n' ends by Elaine Townshend The folk hero Canadians don't get excited; we sit on our hands during hockey genies. Canadians try not to get too involved; we prefer a middle-of-the-road approach to problems. Sometimes we even seem aloof. Canadiang are interested in national unity as long as our province and our region is taken care of first We sionl, boast; there doesn't seem to be much to brag about. We'Ve had a few heroes, but not many. Then along came Terry Fox. Now Canada has a hero. And Canadians are united in a common cause. It started slowly. When Terry began his Marathon of Hope in Newfoundland, his brother, a friend and a few cancer society officials were with him. Through Quebec he an virtually unnoticed. - Few people took seriously his claims that he could run across Canada on an artificial Ie. But by the time he reached Ontario; people were beginning to watch and listen and think. He had another goal - to raise S1,000,000 for cancer research. By the halfway mark of his run, the goal had been surpassed, In fact, it had almost doubled. Canadians were getting involved. - . In Thuntler Bay, his run was interrupted. He had to return to B.C. to fight his second battle against cancer. Millions of Canadians are fighting %Vitn him in spirit. • They decided to take up the challen,,e of raising as much money as possible for the Cinadian Cancer Society. With forty-eight hours preparation, the (TV national network "pulled together a five-hour telethon in whfch entertainers: athletes, politicians, journalists and others from across Canada and abroad took part. Governments, corporations and individ- uals added more than 58,000,000 in cash and pledges to the 51,700,000 Terry had accumulated during his run. By the end of the next day, the total was 512,000,000 and counting. Canadians everywhere want to honour Terry Fox. Sault Ste. Marie named an avenue after him. Simon Fraser University. where Terry was a student three -and -a -half years ago when cancer- first struck, founded a scholarship in hi S ,honour. Other cities propose naming sports' complexes, medical centers and parks after him. Many people think he should receive Canada's highest honour. - • One of the special things about TerryFox is that he doesn't ask people to give anything to him. Rather he asks us to give to a battle that affects us all. Can any of us say our lives haven't, in some way, been touched by cancer?. Someone suggested holding an annual marathon in 'Derry Fox's name to raise funds for the Canadian Cancer Society. It would show Terry we were serious when we told him we were with him and what he started in Newfoundland won't stop until cancer is beaten. Although he doesn't see himself as special, 'there must be something special , about a person who can touch as many people as- he has. He is responsible for raising more than 12,000,0001nr the Canadian Cancer Society and has given renewed hope to millions of people. He helped people look at a man with an artificial leg and see a whole person. That bas to help, everyone who has been expected to live with a stereotype by society. Terry reminds us of the importance of each of us doing the best we can and pooling, our resources to reach a common 8081. It seemed ironic that, when Prime Minister Trudeau and the provincial premiers began haggling over a new constitution, the man who has done more than anyone to unite the people of Canada was lyitrg in a hospital bed 'wearing sneakers, blue jeans and a marathon of hope t -shirt. And Canadians were pulling together with zeal and emotion that I can't recall :mein before. What Terry has done and will do defies analysis. 1 -tis determination:inner strength and compassion for others deserve admira- tion and thanks. *NI CLASSIFIED ADS!
