Assignment # 6

The famous black canadian that I chose to do is Hockey superstar Jerome Iginla. Jerome Iginla plays in the nhl which stands for National Hockey League. Jerome was born July 1 1977 in Edmenton Alberta. Jerome Iginla is the team captain for the Calgary Flames and was first drafted in 1995 and played for the Dallas Stars but was then later traded to the Calgary Flames and spent the rest of his carrer playing with Calgary. Jerome helped lead Canada to gold in the 2002 winter Olympic games and it was a great win for Canada. In 1996 Jerome was called the player of the year for the western part of Canada and in 2001-02 he won the Lester B Pearson award for leading the nhl with points and goals Jerome Iginla is one of my favourite Hockey players in the nhl and I kinda like the Flames. Jerome had one of the highest score rates ever he once scored 50 goals in a season and for every goal Jerome get's he donates 2ooo dollars to charity and that's one of the things I like about him and the black canadian I chose is Jerome Iginla hope u comment on it i would b happy.
