Ross Rebagliati is the Canadian snowboarder who tested positive for marijuana in the 1998 Winter Olympics. USA Today says as the tide toward the legalization of marijuana increases, he’s making his hobby a business. Starting next month he’ll open a dispensary in Whistler selling a strain of pot called Ross’s Gold. Rebagliati says he has become the unofficial spokesperson for pot-smoking athletes around the world: “Anytime somebody gets in trouble for weed I’m the guy the media calls.”
