Brett Babcock, a Carleton student in Ottawa is one of 20 recipients from across the country to recently be awarded a Terry Fox humanitarian award. In 2012 at the age of 18, Babcock became quadriplegic while he was part of the Canadian Trampoline Team and in his first year at Carleton. He ended up taking two years off from school to recover.
Nearly 900 awards have been given through the program since its inception.
