Interviewer: The value of these Invictus Games, the competitiveness. I am witnessing that this week and you as a Veteran and an athlete it just must give you such great pride to be a part of such a game.

It does and, you know, you watch some of the athletes out here and you just can’t help to be inspired on what they are achieving and who they are and that camaraderie stretches across the nations and the bond is there. What I really hope with the Invictus Games and I think they have achieved it is to inspire more people to get out and use sport in their recovery. To be inspired like I have and you have throughout the games to say, you know what, look at that guy or look at that woman or man that’s doing that, that’s incredible. It’s not even military, it’s Canadians at large and how the power of sport can help somebody. The Invictus Games is a great, it’s a great model for that inspiration piece.
