More facts about the Bachelor Canada’s Brad Smith—the white football player everyone’s talking about
It was revealed earlier this week that ex-CFLer Brad Smith has been granted the ultimate honour of being the first-ever Bachelor Canada. Given that The Bachelor franchise has been accused of racism lately, it is interesting to see that its Canadian iteration has cast a white bachelor—but Smith is so much more than just a white football player. He’s the son of Larry Smith, a member of the Canadian senate, and the brother-in-law of ex-Montreal Alouettes kicker Damon Duval. He also served as a bartender at Earl’s Steakhouse on King Street before he started filming. So, to summarize, he’s an ex-bartender and an ex-football player. Chances are, whoever wins the last rose is going to become an ex too. We’re just saying.

Omg he’s white!
What’s the big deal about the skin colour, get a life!
Ex-CFL player AND ex-bartender?! Ladies?
His last 2 professions netted him less than 80k/y combined…
Good catch indeed!
OMG! He’s white and so handsome and I think he needs money.
If he’s currently out of job…how is he going to keep the marriage going…leaving on the wife’s expense?
But I guess Canada needs beautiful and some bold girls on the show, very charming guys like Brat and some gossip girls like Gabrielle that I found she has nothing in common with this guy…..
