 Hi, I'm Christy Clark, the Premier of British Columbia. I wish I was able to be there with all of you and with my colleague, Premier Cathy Dundardale, to celebrate. 25 years ago, Rick returned to Canada and inspired our whole nation. He inspired us and taught us that anything was possible. And now one man in motion will become many in motion, as thousands of participants help recreate his famous journey. We look forward to welcoming the Relay home when it crosses from Alberta into Vailmont, B.C. on March 19th. And we'll keep on celebrating until it concludes on May 22nd in Vancouver. Rick really is a true inspiration. His leadership has shown us what's possible. And there's been incredible progress made to improve outcomes for spinal cord injuries. Rick's dedication to this cause is a huge part of that success. We continue to believe in his vision of a healthier and more inclusive world and a cure for paralysis after spinal cord injury. Congratulations on behalf of all British Columbians on the start of the Rick Hansen 25th anniversary Relay. The Government of British Columbia is proud to continue to be a partner in this historic journey. And we're behind you, Rick, throughout your journey.
