$10K for you and you and you: Alberta man drops off cheques in each Canadian capital
...to help the hungry

Alberta's Geoff Gyles is driving up the Alaska Highway this weekend, en route to Whitehorse.
His mission? To drop off a $10,000 cheque for the local food bank.
It's Gyles's unique way of celebrating Canada 150. He's already delivered cheques to five provincial capitals, and plans to keep going until he's reached all 13 provincial and territorial capitals in the country.
"I thought it was a good moment in time to take a look at one problem that faces all of Canada, which is the hunger problem," said Gyles from Canmore, Alta., who started Journey to End Hunger to raise awareness of child hunger in Canada.

And Whitehorse is quite a distance, at KM 1426 on the Al-Can.
As OP observed, "Nuff said!"
