MS Warriors are those special individuals whose efforts on behalf of people affected by MS go above and beyond the norm to raise awareness, raise funds, and raise our spirits  My guest this week is Marc Boyer. Marc biked more than 4,000 miles, from one end of Canada to the other, raising over $160,000 for the MS Society of Canada. Marc not only raised money that will fund important MS research, his coast-to-coast ride also raised MS awareness throughout Canada.    We're also taking a look back at the MS-related legislative wins, losses, and draws that we faced in 2019. We're talking about gains in federal funding for MS research, first steps in trying to get a handle on the escalating cost of MS prescription medications, and some political outcomes that didn't go well for people living with MS and other chronic illnesses. We have a lot to talk about!
