He was the Canadian Snowboarder who won the first ever Gold Medal for Snowboarding at the 1998 Nagano Winter Olympics.
He was later found to have marijuana in his system and his medal was taken away, but that ruling was overturned and he kept the first ever Olympic Gold for Snowboarding.
Well he is now running for office in BC.

Would you vote for him ?
I would, as long as he seems to know what he is doing.
 
Well he is trying to get the federal Liberal nomination to run against Stockwell Day. Tough to decide which of them is the bigger joke but they are polar opposites.
 
Just another dude looking to hitch a ride on the gravy train called Canadian Politics! :rolleyes:
 
Of course I would vote for him. In a SECOND as long as he seemed aware of the issues. I think we really need to decriminalize drugs, the problems being caused by the war on drugs are so HUGE the United States of Bankruptcy is gonna have to change it's policy pretty soon.
 
Are you guys joking? No, really. Reb "knowing the issues"? I just watched him being interviewed on BNN and the guy was absolutely clueless when he was directly asked what his platform was. He went on about going after the youth demographics via twitter, various medias, etc. He was totally skirting the issues. The interviewer again asked the same question and he was fidgeting as he struggled to answer. But was in-coherent and his answers were very superficial, like he was coached on what to say before the show. What a joke, even for a politician.
