In 1988 Ben Johnson ran a record breaking 9.79 in the 100m and won an Olympic gold medal. A few days later, he tested positive for steroids and the gold medal was lost.
Is this the greatest moment in Canadian sports history or the worst? Did Ben Johnson get a fair trial? Do we wish Ben Johnson got away "Scott Free"?
We are joined by the incredible Mary Ormsby as she talks about her new book, "World's Fastest Man: The Incredible Life of Ben Johnson" and attempts to answer these complicated questions.
