Just outside of Thunder Bay, ON, is a roadside park overlooking the highway. It is dedicated to the life and run of Terry Fox. Terry had had a leg amputated due to cancer and decided to run across Canada to raise money for cancer awareness. He started in St. Johns, NL, and ran for 143 days and 5773 km (3339 miles) before succumbing to his illness and dying in Thunder Bay. He is commemorated with this statue and an annual run in his name.
