The story of a 35-year-old man with autism and a passion for ski racing, and his dream-come-true of representing Canada at Special Olympics World Winter Games. In 2020, Cory qualified for Team Canada and was due to compete at the World Winter Games in Russia in January 2023. Those Games were cancelled. Cory then had to restart the 3 year qualification process which culminated at the 2024 National Winter Games where Cory qualified for the next World Winter Games in Italy in 2025.

As Cory is now a member of Special Olympics British Columbia Vancouver, here he is in his new home team gear. That's his bib from the 2012 National Winter Games behind him, along with some of his trophies, including the 3 diamond-shaped Bronze Medals he earned at those Games. And yes, he was watching ski racing on his TV at the time.
