A Canadian father-daughter team from British Columbia is going the distance to inspire the nation \u2013 Hali and Greg Scott have finished their third ski tour in Western Canada.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

From the time Hali was 11 years old, she has gone on adventures<\/a> with her father Greg, to bond and share quality time. It all started with the pair busking together to raise money for local charities. Once Hali was all grown up, a new experience arose.<\/p>\n

In 2023, the pair decided to embark on a journey to ski through British Columbia. They made history by visiting all 44 of B.C.\u2019s lift-serviced ski areas in just 42 days. The next year, they were encouraged to complete Alberta, visiting all 39 lift-serviced ski areas in three weeks.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur target is to complete Western Canada. And we believe it\u2019s going to be the first time anybody has skied all of Western Canada and every single place. And we\u2019re going to continue on. We\u2019re just having a great time as well, as just a dad and daughter on a special adventure,\u201d Greg told Global News.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was just remarkable. We got to ski so many great ski communities in Saskatchewan and visit right across the entire province. It was amazing,\u201d Greg said. \u201cThere\u2019s this misconception of Saskatchewan \u2013 outside the (province) \u2013 of people that just envisioned this flat place, and it really is not. It\u2019s amazing\u2026 little areas, beautiful ski communities, there is so much passion.\u201d<\/p>\n

Over the years, the Scotts realized it only takes one small action to spark a domino effect of change. This was the beginning of their not-for-profit organization Tidbits of Change Foundation<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur focus is to encourage Canadian youth to do a project or an initiative with a parent or mentor. We really believe that there\u2019s some real benefits in that \u2013 in those relationships and in society \u2013 of the lifelong bonds that it creates,\u201d explained Greg.<\/p>\n

The foundation focused on encouraging youth and their parents to create impactful initiatives in their community. Through Tidbits of Change, more than $14,000 worth of bursaries have been awarded to help fund passion projects and post-secondary education.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re just seeing some amazing stories come out of all of this. And we\u2019re really inspired by the youth that we\u2019ve been involved with, and that we\u2019d heard stories from. We\u2019ve awarded six bursaries now: all six are amazing stories of just great initiatives,\u201d Greg said.<\/p>\n
