Maybe it was iconic in Canada? Of course we don't care

osh kosh bosh

 

[osh kosh bosh]

again I get why americans don't care, you shouldn't care.

but I don't understand why people simply can't use their brains.

CANADA IS ANOTHER COUNTRY, obviously things that matter in this country won't matter outside of this country.

so yah the photo is iconic, prob every Canadian sports fan has seen it at some point.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

this is easily probably the most famous sports person in Canada.

id guess sub 1% of americans know who is?



and that's okay, because IT'S A DIFFERENT COUNTRY.

If that's the most famous Canadian athlete, da U.S. should redirect our foreign policy toward the northern border and figure out what's going on.

Numbers suggest Wemby's way more effective when Sohan is off the floor.

Time for him to do damage.

if you know the story it would make perfect sense.

Spoiler: the story

- Runner gets cancer, has his leg amputated
- starts a cancer research fundraiser; Marathon of Hope, he's going to run across the entire country (on a prosthetic leg) to raise money for research.
-becomes a national sensation. raising tons of money.
- it's a primitive prosthetic so he basically has to skip his way 3000 miles.
- his body was falling apart but he refused to stop, eventually he collapsed and was taken to the hospital, the cancer had spread to his lungs and he was forced to end the marathon.


he dies, basically becomes a martyr for cancer awareness, and his foundation has raised nearly a billion dollars for cancer research.

naturally after all that he's a national hero, every kid learns about him in school, and the foundation continues to raise tons of money.

Wayne Gretzky isn't the most famous Canadian Athlete?

I was just in Toronto and shorty with me didn’t know Canada had its own money and other things…She kept saying “but it’s America!?!?”

She cute but not too bright obviously, the sad thing is that’s how most folks here think bout Canada

it's close

they did a list of greatest Canadian. terry was ranked 2, wayne 10.
Terry is a national hero separate from sports. so non sports people know him, plus you prob had to learn about him in school.
