Jonathan Allenger on a bike

DVS student Yurun Wang documents Cross-Canada Trek for MS

Yurun Wang – a DVS student and professional videographer – is documenting Jonathan Allenger’s 6000-kilometre journey across Canada. The journey – which begins in Vancouver and ends in St. John’s – is being carried out both to raise $1 Million dollars for Multiple Sclerosis and, as Allenger indicates in the story below, to raise awareness about MS. In addition to bringing Yurun on board, Allenger will also be cycling with UTM professor Michael De Braga who teaches at the Institute for the Study of University Pedagogy.
