1997 was a momentous year for Canadian sport: Jacques Villeneuve was the first Canadian to win the Formula 1 World Championship, and Larry Walker was the first Canadian to win the National League MVP. In the wake of their exceptional achievements, both Villeneuve and Walker were shortlisted to win the Lou Marsh Trophy as Canada's outstanding athlete of the year, and so the 1997 judging panel faced an impossible decision. Only one of of these great athletes could win, and Villeneuve was ultimately awarded the honour. In MAN vs. MACHINE (1x60) Walker and Villeneuve reflect - in their own words - on how they reached such heights in these traditionally 'non-Canadian' sports, while members of the 1997 Lou Marsh judging panel reveal how they finally came to their controversial decision - one that is still being questioned to this day.
