Terry Fox Run - September 14, 2025 Thank you to those CN Pensioners who represented CN at last year’s Terry Fox Run. On September 15, 2024, nearly 300 CN employees, retirees, and family members took part in six runs across Canada, raising over $16,500 for cancer research. This was part of CN’s $1 million commitment over three years to help fund life-saving research and innovation. In 2023–24 alone, the Terry Fox Foundation directed $43.9 million to cancer research, supporting over 170 projects and nearly 600 researchers. Definitely something to be proud of! This year’s run - the 45th annual - takes place on Sunday, September 14, 2025 across Canada! As we look ahead to this year’s events, we invite more of you to get involved.
