This was a wonderful story of our Canadian Olympian Knute Johnsgaard and people like Jonathon Kerr who supported him. Well said @katekerr46. I couldn't agree more with your comment. https://t.co/RQKAjKC1KK
When we see, encourage and support the potential great things happen. Proud of my brother in law for being a part of this young Olympian’s journey. https://t.co/vlrfMFo9zf
