> Ben Johnson recently was found to be on PEDs

Recently? Wasn't he caught in 1988?

I mean, on a universal timeline that's pretty recent.

(I have no idea who Ben Johnson is or was. You are probably correct, and I probably look silly.)

Canadian olympic sprinter who was using drugs like everyone else but got caught.

Well I do recall that as soon as he was caught, some in the Canadian media cynically referred to him as Jamaican.
