SocietyThousands of Canadians join 46th annual Terry Fox Run for cancer research

Thousands of people across Canada participated in the 46th annual Terry Fox Run, including runners and walkers in Toronto raising funds for cancer research. More than four decades ago, 21-year-old Fox began his Marathon of Hope in St. John’s, Newfoundland, but cancer spreading to his lungs forced him to stop near Thunder Bay, Ont., after 143 days.
