Who Is The Mystery "Canadian entrepreneur"?

Press Conference: Space Adventures Announces Spaceflight Intention of Canadian Entrepreneur
“Space Adventures, Ltd., the only company that provides human space missions to the world marketplace, invites members of the media to the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) in Montreal and to the Press Hall of The Expocentre (International Exhibitions and Conventions Center) in Moscow as they announce the identity of a Canadian entrepreneur who is slated to launch with Soyuz TMA-16 crew this September. The announcement will take place on Thurs., June 4th 2009 at 9:30 a.m. EDT.”
Keith’s note: Hmm, I wonder who this might be? OK – I’ll guess: Bob Richards – he’s certainly a “Canadian entrepreneur”. Anyone care to speculate?
(P.S. Bob is flattered, but sadly says “it’s not me”.)
