Paul is not joining the PDI. Paul is starting an organization in Canada for amatuers, and pros, a model search for more exposure for the competitors in Canada. He has nothing against the IFBB or NPC, loves both organizations, but he would like to create more oppurtunities in the Canadian market for their athletes.
Like Paul said, how many people can tell you who turned pro at the Canadian Nationals, vs many of us know who turned pro at the U.S. NPC Nationals.
