Terry Fox is an important part of Canada because he risked his own life and health to give awareness to us canadians , so that we can help the people in need, to help kids with all types of cancer so that they don't have to face the same pain that he faced.

Brave, Persistent, and Achiever

Terry Fox ran across Canada to raise money for cancer research. See related questions for more info.

Sadly he had a cancer called BONE CANCER the thing that killed him was some cells of cancer left over from when he lost his leg still left which went to his lungs and he had 2 tumors on each of hid lungs size of golfbàlls

He didn't have much of a chance to work. He was a university student when cancer hit. I think he was about 18. He was studying to be a PhysEd teacher. He was only 22 when he died.

He held the usual summer/seasonal jobs to make a bit of money but as for a career? His life was cut short before he could start one.

Yes, Terry Fox was a Christian. There is a sign at Pelican Lake in Ninette, Manitoba that shows where he was baptized. I saw an interview with him in the year he died and he said through his illness his faith had gotten stronger.

Well.........He is most likely to be our role-model than a leader.

Terry Fox began by dipping his right leg in the Atlantic Ocean at St. John's, Newfoundland on April 12, 1980. He intended to dip it in the Pacific Ocean when he arrived in Victoria, British Columbia. He also filled two large bottles with Atlantic Ocean water; his plan was to keep one as a souvenir and pour the other one into the Pacific. He also intended to fill another jug of water with water from the Pacific Ocean.

According to the Wikipedia article on his name, although Terry Fox did complete part of the journey, his cancer returned. He had to be forced to end his run after 143 days and after less than 6000 km of running.

His Marathon of Hope was from one side of Canada to the other(from St.John's Newfoundland to Victoria, British Colombia).

Mainly mechanics but same plastic

Yes, Terry Fox is a symbol of Canada. Because he ran for cancer and that shows that he has strength and knowledge. Even all the schools in Canada have participated in it to raise money for The Terry Fox run/walk fund when Terry died.
