Glorious and Free

In the spring of 2011, a small group of volunteers set off from St. John's, Newfoundland on a journey across Canada. They would run the same path that Terry Fox had set out on more than 30 years before them-ocean to ocean, along rivers, across prairies and over mountains. Their message was simple: child poverty is everywhere-even in Canada-and we have the power to stop it. There was just one problem. Would anyone be listening? This is the story of the One Nation Run. It is a story of adventure and perseverance and of the struggle to awaken Canadians to the needs in our midst. But more than anything else, it is a story for the children of this country, written in the enduring hope that every child's future can be glorious and free.
