Come Pass the Baton with me!
“Twenty-five years ago, a double gold in Atlanta. What a moment in time that was! And 25 years later, we celebrate this for one reason, and not because it is about the past, but rather because it is about the present – and the future – our future. I look around and I see what Canada can be – should be – must be. And it starts with our youth. All youth. Inclusive. And active. I have said on many occasions that everyone should do sports. It benefits not just the individual, one’s body and mind, but one’s soul. Pass the Baton Canada is a rally call to all Canadians to be active – to get involved while raising funds benefiting youth charities across the nation.”
