Donald Turner is the second Canadian wheelchair basketball athlete in a week to be suspended, barred two years on Tuesday after testing positive for cocaine.

Turner failed a doping test May 20 at the national championships in Winnipeg, according to the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport.

Winnipeg's Shawn Watson, another wheelchair basketball player, was also suspended two years for a positive cocaine test while participating in the same event.

Cocaine is on the World Anti-Doping Agency's list of prohibited substances.

Turner waived his right to a hearing and accepted the sanction proposed by the CCES. He is also permanently ineligible to receive federal sport funding.
