Displaying the Nobel Prize that he won for his role in the Suez Crisis
During Pearson's time as Prime Minister, his minority government introduced a lot of good policy,such as universal health care, student loans, the Canada Pension Plan, etc. With these accomplishments, together with his ground-breaking work at the United Nations and in international diplomacy, Pearson is generally considered among the most influential Canadians of the 20th century.
No one paid much attention to Fox as he moved slowly through Quebec, but by the time he reached Ontario, the Canadians start to notice his heroic effort and Fox was suddenly forced into the limelight, for the first time in his 21 years. However,about half-way through his now wellpublicized journey of 143 days and 5,373 kilometers, the spread of his cancer eventually forced him to end his and ultimately cost him his life. Terry Fox is considered a national hero and is every patient’s icon of inspiration.
