Martin has seen first-hand the undeniable need to invest in cancer research. With the CHUM Foundation’s Guy Lafleur Fund, he wants to make a difference in the lives of other families affected by cancer.
“Hockey fans lost a legendary player, but I lost my dad, and my daughter lost her grandpa. Cancer had a devastating impact on my family, just like many other families across Quebec. That’s why it’s only natural for me to carry the torch in honour of my father and continue this work that was so important to him. ”
