Todd Nicholson excelled as an athlete and helped shape the parasport landscape locally, nationally and internationally through tireless dedication and volunteerism.

Todd served as Team Canada’s sledge hockey captain for 15 years and competed at five consecutive Winter Paralympic Games from 1994-2010, winning gold, silver and bronze medals.

Todd has since occupied a dizzying number of volunteer roles, among them: International Paralympic Committee Athletes’ Council chair, Canadian Paralympic team chef de mission, Games organizing committee advisor and the chair of Own The Podium.

He’s helped athletes return home from Games through his “day job” with the Canada Border Services Agency, and is involved in a wide range of initiatives at the community level, including charity fundraisers and sport promotion.
