| I am a grade 8 student at Ste.Marguerite d'Youville in Verner, Ontario. I am an avid outdoorsman, enjoy working on the family farm, and operating and servicing equipment. In the future I look forward to exploring Canada's far north. My father proposed the research topic and it was very relevant to our farm and my interests. My advice to others is to choose a topic based on their knowledge and interests. |
