Étienne Desmarteau
Étienne Desmarteau (4 February 1873 - 29 October 1905) was a Canadian athlete, winner of the weight throwing event at the 1904 Summer Olympics. For some time, it was thought that Desmarteau was the first Olympic champion from Canada, but it was later discovered that 1900 champion George Orton, who ran for an American university, was also Canadian.
