Tommy Douglas wasn't from a wealthy family, or big for his age as a boy. But he was inspired by a tragic childhood accident, and never forgot the other unfortunate children whose parents couldn't afford to pay surgeons. He became a fiery politician, who is known today as the Father of Medicare, and acknowledged as our greatest Canadian.
