  • Physical inactivity is one of the five leading global risk factors for mortality and is estimated to cause 2 million deaths per year.
  • A billion people worldwide are overweight and 300 million are obese.
  • Childhood obesity in Canada has tripled over the past three decades. (Source: Shilds, M. (2005). Measured Obesity: Overweight Canadian children and adolescents. Statistics Canada, Analytic Studies and Reports. ISSN: 1716-6713
  • The New England Journal of Medicine reports that, for the first time in history, our children's lifespan could be 2-5 years less than our own. (Source:(Olshansky, S. J., Passaro, D.

  • Canadian kids are spending six hours a day in front of television, video games and computer screens - over the course of a week, that is as much time as their parents spend at work.

Laughter is the best medicine...

"The sound of roaring laughter is far more contagious than any cough, sniffle, or sneeze. Laughter is a powerful antidote to stress, pain, and conflict.

Nothing works faster or more dependably to bring your mind and body back into balance than a good laugh. Humor lightens your burdens, inspires hopes, connects you to others, and keeps you grounded, focused, and alert." ...

Time to laugh...

Life is all about asses.



You are either...

Behavin' like one,

Coverin' it,

Laughin' it off,

Kickin' it,

Kissin' it,

Bustin' it

or

Tryin' to get a piece of it,
