    More than 90,000 Canadians are living with Multiple Sclerosis and everyday, 12 more Canadians are diagnosed. On May 26th, in 50 communities across the country the MS Walk will bring people together with the goal of raising over $4 million. Nicole McCarthy and Melissa Brake are MS ambassadors and dropped into the Bayfm station for a chat with Lenny Benoit.
