Goofball Of The Month: Myriam Bedard


This month's goofball is Myriam Bedard; for allegedly violating a child custody agreement with her ex-husband, the child's biological father.

Canada swore out an arrest warrant against Bedard on Dec. 8 after her former husband alleged she had taken their daughter away from Quebec City without his permission, violating a joint custody agreement. Police have so far refused to divulge any details of their investigation, which started in October after an initial complaint from Paquet (ex-husband).
Bedard, a native of Loretteville, near Quebec City, is no stranger to controversy despite winning the hearts of Canadians with her gold-medal wins in the biathlon at the Lillehammer, Norway, Winter Olympics in 1994, and a bronze medal at the 1992 games in Albertville, France.
She sued, and settled out of court, when Wrigley Canada Inc. ran an ad featuring an altered photo of her that she said made her look masculine. Bedard tussled with Biathlon Canada over training and endorsements. But she started really raising eyebrows with charges during the federal sponsorship scandal. Bedard said she was forced from her Via Rail job because of questions she raised about inflated payments to Quebec ad firms.

Now everyone's presumed innocent until proven guilty. But that doesn't mean you're not a goofball.

Congratulations Myriam Bedard you're the Goofball of the Month for December 2006.




P.S. I don't know if the goofball of the month will continue in 2007. I have other things in mind. So stay tuned. Peace.

Man Georgie W. wants to send 30,000 more troops to the Hellhole formerly Known as Iraq. While making his new years resoloution to Keep the Troops Safe

Stephane Dion won't support a no confidince motion in Parliment against an unpopular war when his Libbys are 6-10 points ahead in all major polls

And then of course there's the Philadelphia Flyers...

I'm Just sayin... She Won Gold for us...She ratted out the Liberals on the Sponsorship scandal, and There's a real possibility that her husband ( and our Government) are the goofballs in this situation.

dubya and dion could potentially be the goofballs everymonth.

yeah you're right, she won a gold medal she must be innocent. it's probably the same people who framed Ben Johnson.

however as per her custody agreement she could leave quebec city without the father knowing. and obviously this didn't happen. of course we don't know all the details. but maryland's a long way away from quebec city.

Well The Facts are not out yet and until they are I am willing to give her the benefit of the doubt.

Hmmm. Canadian, snagged by Yanks on suspicios grounds... nope doesen't remind me of Ben Johnson, but it brings to mind something.

bmywell I don't know about that suspicious-ness. I guess she was gone since October. yikes.
I'm suprised she's still in custody. although, I shouldn't be, the US probably thinks all Canadians are terrorists. They held Arar for 12 days, how long has it been now?

Hey, Maybe TeFriends of Science could be goofballs of the month?

Dr.Clawmonkey said...

Now I know what it feels like after you vote liberal.

schmunky said...

Exactly!!!!

I still send pissed off letters to Robert Thibeault's Office still complaining about him siding with the Conservatives on the Afghan Extension. I Have Certianly not gotten back an Anwser to my questions. NEVER AGAIN LIBERALS!

Friends of Science are Shills. a 41 mile long piece of the Ice Shelf broke off Ellesmere Island last week. Anyone denying Global Warming at this point is either getting paid to say it or they are Bat-Shit Insane.
