Canada has one of the highest incidence rates of multiple sclerosis in the world - research and support for people with MS and their families is critical. Cruisin' for a Cause creates an opportunity for Canadian baby boomers who grew up enjoying warm summer evenings in their cars at A&W drive-ins - often with the radio blaring and trays of Teen burgers, hand-made onion rings and icy cold mugs of A&W Root Beer delivered by car hops - to revisit those fond memories and support the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada.
