Johnson, Ben (1961– )

Canadian athlete. Born in Jamaica, he moved to Canada in 1976 to train for the 100-metre sprint. He won numerous awards and was inducted into the Canadian Amateur Sports Hall of Fame in 1988. At the Seoul Olympic Games in the same year, he tested positive for the illegal steroid stanozolol after winning the 100-metre sprint in what would have been a world record time of 9.79 seconds. He was stripped of his gold medal, which was then awarded to second-placed Carl Lewis. His ban was lifted in September 1990, but when he failed a second drug test in 1993 he was banned for life.
