OTTAWA (CP) - Canadian boxer Marc Bourassa has been suspended from competition for two years after testing positive for marijuana.
The Victoriaville, Que., native's positive test was taken during the national championships on Feb. 16, the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport said Monday. Bourassa defeated Canadian team veteran Adam Trupish for the 69-kilogram title at the tournament.
The positive test means that the 23-year-old is permanently ineligible to receive federal sport funding. Bourassa waived his right to a hearing.
There was no immediate word on whether Bourassa would be stripped of his title.
The CCES also announced that another Canadian boxer tested positive for cannabis but only received a warning. The athlete's identity was not released.
