My Background // My 'Story"
In 1953, during the winter months, attending the scouts assembly at the recreational centre, my curiosity was attracted to people lifting weights and exercising. During weeks before or after the scouts assembly, I was observing them on regular basis; one day, I was observing and admiring
them, Mr Laurin invited me to try it and lift the weights, which captivated me so much that a suscribed with the group.
Eventually, I was able to gather a few dollars to buy a set of 325 pounds barbells
from Mr. Adrien Gagnon. That is how I started to train in the furnace room of the apartments house (very warm) on a more regular basis. With time, when my parents observed how dedicated I was to training, I graduated to the garage, and then to the basement.

Later in 1959, I started to work and then was able to join . My trainers, Andy Charette drove regularly to Montreal to meet Leo Robert, Jimmy Caruso, Adrian Gagnon
and Ben Weider, also Harry Swartch and John Valentine from Vic Tanny which I managed the gym with 20 instructors, where I was privileged to receive personal instructions. Also, the one and only very good magazine

In l960, I participated to my very first competition in Sudbury, Ontario (Mr. Ten Provinces) where I came 2nd most muscular after Henry Chevrier. Later in 2005, I was pleasantly surprised to meet his son in a competition. This competition started the ball and I kept on doing many contests until l972. I managed to win Mr. Canada Most Muscular in l969, also twice as a Canadian Powerlift Champion. At age 32, I retired from competing to be more available to my family and career. I then kept training at a much slower pace (2 to 6 hours/week, compared to 20-25 hours/week).

At age 64, when retired from public life, I decided to give more attention to training and try myself at competing again.

Professional
- Went to school in Toronto to become electronic technician, worked for Canadian Pacific as a specialist in telecommunications, where I worked until 1978.
- Big switch in carrer: bought a sawmill with my brother and managed it until 2004.
- Retired from public life
- in 2006 we decided to build a house and I managed the project (66 years old) and that is where we live now

Anecdotes
- when I was 24 years old, the participants of a competition had to make a show for the kids the following day; I then was able to do 15 reps with 310 pds on a bench press, at 160 body weight.
- when asking the judges what to do to improve myself? The answer:
- my future wife was not even impressed by my titles as Canadian Champion in 2 disciplines, I had to figure our new charming methods.
