As most of you probably know, Rick Hansen is a truly iconic Canadian who was in an automobile crash at age 15 that left him a paraplegic. In 1985, after winning 19 international wheelchair marathons, he began his dream to circumnavigate the earth and raise awareness and money for spinal cord injury victims.
