The roadside memorial sign honors Alexandra Ollington and underscores the lasting harm of impaired driving, which killed her and another teen.
- On Friday, September 11, 2026, MADD Canada unveiled roadside memorial signs in Waterloo and Fort Saskatchewan honouring Leanne Holland Brown and Alexandra Ollington, both killed in impaired driving crashes.
