Default Ference & Regehr to join Suzuki's national environment tour

http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/Canada/2...474690-cp.html

Canadian celebrities will join Suzuki throughout the tour, with musicians such as Sarah Harmer and Anne Murray performing, along with TV personalities like Rick Mercer, and NHL players Andrew Ference and Robyn Regehr of the Calgary Flames.
"People of all stripes are lending their support to the tour because the environment isn't a partisan issue," says Suzuki.

Good to see the guys actively supporting a cause they believe in.

Personally, I've never been a big fan of Suzuki, but considering how hot public opinion is on the environment issue is right now, I'm interested to see what comes out of this.

Suzuki's heart is in a good place, but some of his ideas are straight up wacked out.

Good job Ference & Regehr..most athletes, especially in the NHL, seem to stay clear of politically charged issues or anything with the slightest bit of controversy. Very admirable of these guys to step up for this.
