Tim Hague
Winner of the Amazing Race Canada;
Parkinson's Activist & Motivator
Speaker Tim Hague Sr. overcame the odds when he went from a diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease to just three years later — becoming the inaugural winner of CTV’s The Amazing Race Canada. Tim’s message of strength and courage leaves audiences motivated to meet life’s challenges and do more than they ever thought they could. +
Tim and his son, Tim Hague Jr., put their now-trademark perseverance to work while participating as a duo on The Amazing Race Canada. When the pair finally came out on top in the last competition of the race, they had never before won any stages and in fact had nearly been eliminated from the show twice. Despite the odds, “The Tims” as viewers affectionately dubbed them, kept their focus on overcoming one obstacle at a time to take the championship, a message of hope that Tim draws on in his talks.
A registered nurse, Tim Hague is active in the promotion of healthy, balanced lifestyles, and deeply involved in the promotion of Parkinson’s issues and building awareness around Young Onset Parkinson’s Disease working closely with groups such as the Parkinson Society and the Movement Disorder Clinic. --

Tim is a very engaging and inspirational speaker with the added bonus of being a bit of a celebrity. He spoke this week for our group of meeting planners and got rave reviews. We all left feeling ready to take on whatever comes our way. I manage a number of conferences and hire myriad speakers for varied purposes. Tim hit my very high expectations on all fronts – easy to work with, customized his talk to fit our group, gave an organized and focused talk, injected humour and self-deprecation, delivered a good message and had great interaction with the audience.

First, I would like to say that it was we who were truly inspired by your words and actions at our event. I have had so many people approach me and comment on how they wished others (coworkers, family) could have heard you speak. It was a day of great enthusiasm, creativity and focus – and you provided that anchor for us…

Tim Hague was the dinner speaker for one of our annual Dealer Group meetings. He had a wonderful message of hope and perseverance that was both heart-warming and inspiring. He is an engaging speaker and his presentation was warm and personal in a way that really allowed him to connect with his audience. We are very grateful to him for taking the time to share his experience and his wisdom with us.

An enormous and heartfelt thank you. I have spent this morning reviewing the evaluations and the number of Excellent ratings is wonderful to see. (You did not get) less than a ‘Good’ and the comments were uniformly “Inspiring”, “Informative”, “I learned so much”. The only complaint we got was people wanted more time with you!
