Shepard can’t go to his true home town as he is from the future. However he still inquired about making a speech at his hometown of Vancouver. At this point Commander Shpeard is an international celebrity being the first open time traveller. Shepard’s speech would be as epic as it gets. Shepard during his time saving the galaxy multiple times had numerous speeches about persevering and doing the right thing which always inspired his crew mates. This one will be no different. Shepard will explain that hard work and an unwavering dedication and loyalty to one another will lead one to greatness. Shepard, like all great speeches, will form a sort of crescendo towards the ending. Starting at his humble beginnings as a street thug in future Vancouver. Deciding to better himself and escape gang life by joining the alliance, working hard from the bottom gaining the respect of your peers and superiors. Learning new skills, leading by example etc. The school students will become so inspired. Hell maybe Shepard’s great-great-great grandparents themselves are in the audience.
