Powerlifter Justin Smith got his Canadian team off to a great start at the
World Powerlifting Championships in Poland. Smith is from Mount Pleasant in western PEI and is one of four Prince Edward Island teens competing this week at the worlds.
Justin Smith landed a bronze, a gold and second place overall in the world. The results are particularly impressive because the 18-year-old was very close to not making his weight and being dropped from the competition. Island Morning producer Nancy Russell reached Justin Smith in Poland.
