CORA BLIAULT
DESCRIBE YOUR CHILDHOOD/GROWING YEARS
In my early stage of development, I took an interest in sports, basketball being my favorite, that means I was outside playing a lot. As I grew, my curiosity grew as well. I could see the trash almost everywhere I went and wonder why? It made me curious about why people would do that. So, my desire to learn and understand how much trash and waste we humans could create and what it would impact our planet. Seeing and learning what you’re doing to our environment made me want to change and make a difference in the world.
I lost my brother at 13 and my father 5 years after that it was something that took a long time to heal from that, but I would always find myself in peace when I’m out in mother nature.
WHAT IS YOUR MEMORABLE MOMENT?
Going to Canada for the first time and playing in the snow with my brother and sister, breathing in the clean and beautiful air and scenery. seeing raccoons sitting on the white snow then turning around to see my sister getting her foot stuck in the snow and me running to dig her out.
ANY SPECIAL STORIES OR FACTS ABOUT YOUR FAMILY?
We are tough and strong, any obstacle we meet, we manage to get through. We are fighters and sometimes we may fight with each other, but we always make up and love one another in our own way.
WHAT IS THE MOST UNUSUAL THING YOU HAVE EVER DONE?
In kindergarten, I got my finger stuck in a small drain, I cried and when I manage to get my finger free it was bleeding, so l went to the nurse, she asked me what had happened, and I told her that I didn’t know.
WHAT TIPS CAN YOU SHARE TO PROMOTE ECOTOURISM & CLIMATE CHANGE?
