Huit ans plus tard, Bennett a saisi sa chance aux Jeux de Londres en 1948, mais l\u2019a presque rat\u00e9e \u00e0 nouveau parce qu\u2019il a fait une sieste avant la comp\u00e9tition. Un comp\u00e9titeur britannique a remarqu\u00e9 qu\u2019il n\u2019\u00e9tait pas sur la ligne de d\u00e9part, il a volontairement fait deux faux d\u00e9parts pour donner la chance \u00e0 Bennett de ramer jusqu\u2019\u00e0 la ligne de d\u00e9part. Bennett a ensuite remport\u00e9 la m\u00e9daille d\u2019argent au C-1 1000 m dans une course chaudement disput\u00e9e et une heure plus tard, il a fini quatri\u00e8me au C-2 1000 m (avec Harry Poulton).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Athl\u00e8te talentueux, Bennett \u00e9tait le plus jeune d\u2019une famille de cinq gar\u00e7ons et quatre filles. Il a jou\u00e9 au hockey junior pour le Club de hockey Royal de Montr\u00e9al en 1937 et a aussi \u00e9t\u00e9 un nageur, mais la frustration due \u00e0 son manque de succ\u00e8s dans la piscine l\u2019a pouss\u00e9 \u00e0 passer au cano\u00eb. Membre du Club de cano\u00eb de St-Lambert et du Club de nautique Excel de Longueuil, Bennett a connu une carri\u00e8re en cano\u00eb \u00e9tal\u00e9e du milieu des ann\u00e9es 1930 jusqu\u2019\u00e0 la fin des ann\u00e9es 1940 et est devenu multiple champion canadien. En 1947, il a mis la main sur les titres canadiens en simple, en tandem, \u00e0 quatre et a \u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e9lu athl\u00e8te montr\u00e9alais de l\u2019ann\u00e9e, devant le h\u00e9ros du hockey Maurice Richard, des Canadiens de Montr\u00e9al. Apr\u00e8s avoir pris sa retraite du cano\u00eb en 1948, Bennett a travaill\u00e9 chez Bell Canada dans le d\u00e9partement d\u2019ing\u00e9nierie, mais est demeur\u00e9 physiquement actif dans le sport. Il est d\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9 \u00e0 Pointe-Claire, au Qu\u00e9bec en 2008.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bennett a \u00e9t\u00e9 intronis\u00e9 au Temple de la renomm\u00e9e du sport de St-Lambert en 1987, au Temple de la renomm\u00e9e olympique du Canada en 2000 et au Panth\u00e9on des sports du Qu\u00e9bec en 2003.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sp\u00e9cialiste du sprint en cano\u00eb, le Canadien Doug Bennett a remport\u00e9 la m\u00e9daille d\u2019argent au C-1 1000 m des Jeux&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":188542,"template":"","tags":[622441,415984528,415984535,9949311],"hof-categories":[682162651],"year-inducted":[682162673],"gender":[42123],"season":[415983968],"sport":[415984560],"game":[181821866],"team":[415983348],"event":[181822198,181822224],"province":[415983157],"class_list":["post-26717","athletes","type-athletes","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-canoe-kayak","tag-jeux-olympiques-dete","tag-londres-1948","tag-medaille-dargent","hof-categories-athlete","year-inducted-682162673","gender-masculin","season-ete","sport-sport-canoe-kayak-course-de-vitesse","game-1948-londres","team-londres-1948-canoe-kayak-course-de-vitesse","event-c-1-1-000-m-hommes","event-c-2-1-000-m-hommes","province-quebec"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
