Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaCGI was used to provide Shawn Ashmore with a prosthetic leg
- GoofsIn one scene, Bill Vigars refers to Canada Day, the July 1 holiday commemorating the Confederation of Canada. This may be perceived as an anachronism, as the holiday was not officially known as Canada Day until 1982; in 1980, its official name was still Dominion Day. However, it should be noted that informally, many Canadians were already referring to the holiday as Canada Day; the official name change *reflected* an already existing usage.

Amazing..Just Amazing
I just finished watching Terry and it was such an inspiring movie.. I felt such warmth in my soul. Terry Fox is a true ICON for us Canadians. As I was watching "Terry", I got news that my town in Newfoundland raised just over $92,000 for the cancer society. I was so proud. It was such an amazing movie. There couldn't have been a better person then Sean Ashmore to play Terry. I cried while watching this movie and it wasn't because of his death, it was because of this life. He was an amazing man. I kept thinking while watching the movie how I sometimes complain just walking across the street to go to the store while this courageous man jogged as far as he could across Canada. I just can't tell you how full my heart feels from this movie. Good work to all those who helped make this movie and to the family and friends of Terry Fox, God Speed.
God Bless Terry Fox and his family...May he live forever in our hearts and memories.
