Lighting the Way: Andre De Grasse Inspires a New Generation at Nationals

< Back

This past weekend, the Athletics Canada National Championships delivered more than just elite performances—it brought a wave of inspiration. Canadian sprinting icon Andre De Grasse was on-site, a living legend whose presence still electrifies stadiums. But the most powerful moment didn’t come from a finish—it came from a moment of legacy.

As proud supporters of Andre De Grasse and official partners of Team Canada, Cubeit Portable Storage was proud to be there for a defining chapter in Canadian track and field. In a stirring display of encouragement and leadership, Andre cheered on Brampton’s Tooni Ogunyeye, who made headlines by breaking his U20 100m record with an impressive 10.23-second sprint.

It was more than just a win—it was a moment that highlighted the influence one athlete can have on those coming up behind him. From his early days on community tracks to the global stage of the Olympics, Andre’s journey continues to inspire young Canadians to push their limits. Watching him celebrate Tooni’s breakthrough was a proud, emotional milestone in Canadian sport.

At Cubeit, we know that big dreams often start close to home. That’s why we support athletes across the country from grassroots to gold medals. Whether it’s at national events like this one, or on local ski slopes, baseball fields, rinks, and beyond—you’ll find us standing behind Canadian talent every step of the way.

While our sister brand, Access Storage, provides self-storage services in communities throughout Ontario, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Nova Scotia, Cubeit offers flexible portable storage solutions across much of Canada—helping Canadians stay organized, mobile, and ready for what’s next.

Congratulations to Andre for continuing to lead by example, and to Tooni for proving that the next generation of Canadian sprinting is ready to carry the torch.

Because when we support one another—on the track, in the stands, and in our communities—amazing things happen. And we’re honoured to be part of that journey.
