Martin and his family moved to Bridgetown, N.S. in 1972 where Martin attended Elementary and High School. He spent many hours with his Grandfather Bent learning how to drive any tractor or vehicle, and finding out how to take care of machinery. Martin moved to Quebec in his teen years and met the love of his life, Linda LeFebvre. They welcomed their first child Brandon on Jan 26, 2000. On May 15, 2002 Allison was born. With their family now complete they moved to Red Deer, Alberta to pursue his love of tractor-trailer driving. Martin long hauled to the United States and the pipelines with several companies.
