Sporting a stache: The best Canadian moustaches in sport
Who else is excited for Movember?!
In what is now an annual tradition, people all over the world shave their faces and grow moustaches for the month of November to help support and raise awareness for men’s health.
While the Movember initiative is relatively new, men have been growing moustaches for years, simply for the fun of it (it can’t be for the look). So in honour of Movember, it only makes sense that we revisit some of the best moustaches ever grown by Canadian athletes, coaches and sports personalities:
