Whistler will present the story of the seemingly perfect world-class mountain resort that is the Mecca to elite athletes from all over the world, but when a local snowboarding legend returns from the 2006 Torino Winter Olympics with a gold medal - only to be found dead on the slopes, it sends shockwaves through the community. Whistler premieres on CTV on February 15, 2006 and has also been picked up by the N, nighttime network for teens.
