Heart and Stroke Foundation canvassing with Royal Canadian Air Cadets

 

As Heart and Stroke Month comes to a close here in Thompson, the Heart and Stroke Foundation will be giving one last canvass tonight, supported in part by the Thompson Royal Canadian Air Cadets.

 

The air cadets have been a group that consistently helps out with the Foundation’s canvassing every year, a tradition that Thompson and Area Campaign Chairperson Al Meston says dates back longer than he’s been there.

 

“They’ve been doing for 30-some years already. What happened in the early years, Deerwood used to be their street. And then I was having trouble with getting people to canvass in different areas, so I turned around and I took the cadets and moved them around to whatever I couldn’t get covered, which worked out better.

 

The cadets will be out from 7 to 9 pm, canvassing around the areas of Westwood Drive, Spoonbill Crescent, Pelican Crescent, Notigi Bay, Baffin Crescent, Rankin Crescent and Wolf Street.
