Just in time for Christmas, one lucky winner will be taking a cross Canada trip on Via Rail.
The trip, worth $13,000, was a grand prize from the Mood Disorder Society of Canada.
Participants in the organization’s events across the country were able to enter the draw if they raised or donated $200 to the cause.
Brittney Collinge was a participant in the Durham Region Annual Walk and Talk for Mental Health and was the lucky entry pulled by Defeat Depression Belleville supporter and Bay of Quinte MP Neil Ellis.

Collinge and a guest will travel from Toronto to Vancouver and back on the cross-country train.
The Defeat Depression Belleville walk is set for May 31, 2020.
