Mihai Apostol
Mihai Apostol (born April 28, 1971) is a Canadian sprint canoer who competed from the mid-1990s to the early 2000s. Apostol was born in Romania, but defected to Canada with two teammates while attending the 1989 world junior paddling championship in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. He was 18 years old at the time. After defecting, Apostol took up residence in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and struggled to adapt to life in Canada without his family.
Apostol returned to the sport in 1991, training out of and competing for the Banook Canoe Club, and eventually became a world-class sprint kayaker, excelling especially in shorter sprints. He achieved Canadian citizenship in 1995, making him eligible to compete for Canada at the Olympic Games. Competing in two Summer Olympics, he earned his best finish of seventh in the K-4 1000 m event at Atlanta in 1996.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/athletes/ap/mihai-apostol-1.html )〕 Following his retirement as an Olympian in 2003, Mihai competed for several years with the Dragon Boat East dragon boat club. He also competed at the 2012 Canadian Masters Nationals sprint canoe-kayak championships, where he obtained four gold medals in various events.
Apostol now resides in Halifax, Nova Scotia with his wife and daughter.
In December 2012, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police announced that they had arrested and charged Apostol in a large marijuana-related drug bust in Nova Scotia. In August 2015, Apostol was committed to stand trial in Nova Scotia Supreme Court on charges stemming from the 2012 arrest.
