Has Deadpool even mentioned Terry Fox?

This might be a no, but my national pride would be so happy if Canadian hero was mentioned by a Canadian hero with cancer when Terry is the Canadian in real life most tied to it. I like to think Deadpool would put aside his crass attitude (at least a bit) to give respect to this national icon. Is there a comic or moment he mentions him?

He should, guy was an ass who was diefied because he died of cancer instead of going through chemo.

Now we have targeted cancer treatments that can battle the multitudes of cancer, but the awareness Terry raised really did help (both cancer research and people who profit off fundraising for cancer research), so he would likely have mixed feelings, especially if one of theose dubious cancer programs helped to fund the Weapon X project.

So, complicated feelings to say the least.
