Where It Begins | Milano Cortina 2026 Canadian Paralympic Team

Описание: Greatness doesn't start in the spotlight.

It starts on frozen ponds at dawn. On local trails after school. In basements where dreams echo off concrete walls. In places like Campbell River, St. John's, Kahnawà:ke, and Gatineau.
