With 20 paddlers per boat, 24 teams took part in the ninth annual Fuller Landau Cedars CanSupport \u2018Rain or Shine\u2019 Dragon Boat Race and Festival along the Lachine canal this past Sunday to help raise money for people suffering from cancer. <\/p>\n

Having had a chance to practice throughout the summer, the teams assembled early Sunday morning on the dreary day with high spirits ready for the 7 a.m. start. Among the 24 teams represented, members of the Royal Canadian Navy\u2019s Reserve unit in Montreal, HMCS Donnacona, took part in the race and were led by Lieutenant Louis-Phillippe Trudel, staff and administration officer. <\/p>\n

\u201cCancer is a sickness that affects people of all ages and backgrounds, it is indiscriminating and unforgiving\u201d explained Trudel. \u201cFor me it was particularly important since my mother has benefited greatly from the services of Cedars CanSupport over the past year.\u201d <\/p>\n

Trudel and his team enjoyed the camaraderie of people getting together for a common cause as \u201cpeople for all walks of life organized rowing teams with one goal in mind: raise funds to support an organization that offers invaluable services to cancer patients and survivors. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe MUHC has great doctors and nurses, but they only treat the medical aspect of any disease. No one in our universal healthcare has the time or the resources to worry about the actual wellbeing of their patients. This is where Cedars comes in. This organization offers services like support groups, subsidized parking, a cup of coffee, books and even free wigs to patients undergoing chemotherapy,\u201d the lieutenant noted. <\/p>\n
