Join us on a deeply moving episode of "The Unsung Podcast" where we explore the incredible story of resilience, gratitude, and the life-changing impact of emergency medical services. Our guest today is none other than Joanne McGregor, the paramedic who, back in 1994, performed a life-saving intervention that not only preserved our host's life but also set him on a path of profound personal transformation.

2025 will indeed be epic as the Team will walk Eastern Canada once again, starting in St. John's NFLD and ending on Pelee Island, ON.  We are excited to be promoting First Responder Families First, working alongside of Can Praxis, raising funds to bring First Responder Families to Alberta for this amazing initiative.

 Chad's mission is not only to "define himself" and find his "purpose", it's also to inspire others to speak openly about mental health and how PTSD / OSI's impact those in the Public Safety, Military, and Veteran Communities.

The Vision to walk Canada to share his story of injury, healing, and resiliency came to light moments before Chad followed through with his plan to die by suicide on August 2, 2020.   Like most in the Military and Public Safety professions, Chad kept his traumas to himself, worried about being judged, considered weak, and believing there was NO help.  In 2018 Chad was diagnosed with PTSD, with "bad" help, Chad would go through the motions and continue to work as a member of the Alberta Sheriff Highway Patrol.  On July 18th, 2020 Chad would be one of the first on scene at the Columbia Ice Fields bus crash.  This would start the spiral process and by February 3rd, 2021 Chad hit the wall and was too afraid to work.  

Through aggressive therapy with numerous clinicians, Chad would get far enough in his healing to follow through with walking Canada.

All profits from the funds raised will benefit mental health initiatives that revolve around our public safety personnel and military communities, including our northern territories.
