We traveled from Coast to Coast in Canada while Peggy battled ALS. From sunrise to sunset she battles this disease with love for life, friends and family.
Peggy is finally free and without pain. I believe her spirit is soaring with wings as wide as her heart.
My promise to her is continue fighting gov to better #FundALSreseach
Help raise more support for #ALSAwareness
And to make the #ALScaucus become more effective.
...I will.
@PierrePoilievre I think what amazes me more than anything, is the inability of some to comprehend how the liberal party has spent tax dollars like a bunch of drunken sailors, committed to programs and foreign donations that most Canadians are against .....and refuse to listen to Canadians.
@bsw5020 To recognize the potential of ground breaking "legitimate" research across the country and increase funding to provide the centers with the resources needed.
A #CureForALS would also encompass most other neurological diseases.
Nothing in this world is stronger than LOVE. Peggy with our granddaughter over the holidays sharing what they've always had together. She's going to find a #CureForALS for her Nana.

At @mcgillu, Dr. Stifani is growing motor neurons from people living with #ALS using induced pluripotent #stemcells, a technological advancement that will help to understand why ALS occurs. Learn more in this archived video from the #VirtualResearchForum. https://t.co/POoMzimckU
I have #ALS and I'm now a quadriplegic. What I miss most:
1. Giving hugs
2. Cuddling, holding my wife
3. Playing with the kids
4. Walking
5. Working on the house
We must find a solution and #EndALS! #C9orf72
I get anger with our government for not #fundingALSresearch in Canada. Peggy asked me to stop being angry and to just be a loving husband.
So I'll stop pointing out the uselessness of the #ALScaucus and the complacency of Ottawa as @JustinTrudeau continues spending... (for now)
The federal government has given Toronto $11 million to defray the costs of resettling asylum seekers, part of a $50 million package for Quebec, Ontario and Manitoba......but not ONE dollar to funding #ALSresearch. @Francis_Drouin are you able to explain? @ALSCanada
🍁Minister @GPTaylorMRD @Bill_Morneau@JohnOliverMP, it has been a difficult weekend in my #ALS world; I've lost friends (with a S) and a friend w/ great difficulty coping w/ the disease. Please find the right vehicle to fund @ALSCanada's #CaptureALS ask. Let's Roll...
Peggy WILL be riding with me on my Harley from coast to coast ....even if only her ashes next to her tattoo on my heart. And we WILL raise funds for #ALSresearch
Maybe one day the government WILL do something.

The doctor who administered #StemcellTherapy to Peggy is on the defensive after reading an article posted on the CTV News website regarding #UnregulatedStemcellClinics in Canada.
Hyped possibilities of success in #FightingALS

@NormanMacIsaac@Francis_Drouin Thanks Norman
I tried to bring that point to the forefront of our interview. But unfortunately CTV couldn't use it for their story.
Government funding for #ALSresearch is my only goal. Peggy (my wife) asked me to continue this fight after she's gone, and I WILL.

-- 🍁 PM @JustinTrudeau & Minister of Health @GPTaylorMRD - What have you or your party done for ALS MND lately?
- Nothing.
