Liam Wacey’s “Cycles of Change” tour ends with a splash in the Atlantic
Throughout the spring and summer, Vernon BC’s Liam Wacey is biking across Canada to raise awareness about Sierra Club Canada’s conservation campaigns and the ecological threats to Canada’s wilderness and biodiversity.
“The more I looked into the state of the environment, the more difficult I found it to just turn my head and pretend nothing was wrong,” said Mr. Wacey. “On the other hand, the deeper I looked, the more impressed I was at the concerted efforts of dozens of environmental advocacy groups, most notably Sierra Club Canada.”
After leaving his hometown on May 24, Liam has crossed the mighty Rockies, the Great Plains, and Northern Ontario, arriving on Parliament Hill on Friday July 2.
Liam has been keeping the country updated on his travels by blogging on Sierra Club Canada’s website. He is also posting regularly to his personal Facebook page.
Liam's tour will end in Halifax. He will arrive at Province House on Wednesday, July 15th at noon before biking into the Atlantic Ocean to complete his journey.
