Video Transcript: Allan Wellwood

He has an incredible desire to help fellow Veterans and basically all Canadian seniors. He's very energetic, he's persistent, he's enthusiastic in all his endeavors. He's always got a smile. He works tirelessly, literally tirelessly to advocate for all Veterans, and all seniors benefit from his work.

He has no problem reaching out to politicians. He will go and tap on their door, and he will say, “Have you got a minute?” If they don't have a minute, then he says, “When is your next free minute?” And he will be back.

If he calls you or writes a letter to you and you don't respond in a reasonable time, he is going to show up on your doorstep. He visits with Veterans and their families. If someone is ill, he always sends them cards to say, ‘We're thinking about you’.

Allan, you inspire me to do good for all mankind, but in particular our Veterans and our seniors. And I just want you to know, I want you to keep up the good work that you're doing.
