Ross Rebagliati, the Olympic snowboarder who was famously (albeit briefly) stripped of a gold medal in 1998 after testing positive for marijuana, has found a new kind of slippery slope to navigate. Rebagliati recently announced that he will be running for political office in Canada.Rebagliati, 38, is seeking the liberal party nomination in the British Columbia "riding" (the equivalent of an electoral district) of Okanagan-Coquihalla. The riding is currently represented by a member of the conservative party.
