UPDATE: Muhammad Ali can’t make it thus the contest has been canceled. Apologies to those who have entered.

On October 7th, Vancouver will welcome the greatest, none other than Muhammad Ali.  It’s been a long time since he’s been to Canada (30 plus years) and he will be in town for an advanced screening of “Facing Ali”. We have been selected by Imagin1day to alert our readers to The Greatness Photo Contest! Here are the details, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity!
