i only just noticed that they have a new way to spin the doug sr / marilyn bell story...
not they were in the same race, not necessarily even in the lake at the same time, just respected her handling of freezing water 'cause it was something he couldn't do.

Doug Ford Sr. met his wife, Diane, at Sunnyside Beach, where he was a lifeguard in the ’50s. He’d grown up poor in the east end, the youngest of 9, raised by a single mother. He was an all-round athlete, a powerful swimmer who had huge respect for Marilyn Bell because, he said, he couldn’t withstand the freezing water of Lake Ontario the way she did when she swam across.
