[4] In his late teens, LeBlanc was a long-distance cycler which between June 23, 1978 and January 1979, bearing the nickname "10-Speed Charlie", he cycled from Halifax, Nova Scotia through the United States East Coast to Florida, then along the Southern United States before finishing in Sacramento, California, on a Optimist International-sponsored trek coverting 9,000 miles (14,000 km) before retiring from cycling at the age of 19.
In November 1991, he disrupted the New Brunswick Confederation of Regions Party's annual meeting in Saint John in response to CoR leader Danny Cameron's suggestion that the Acadian flag be removed from the legislature.
[17][18] In response, the Canadian Civil Liberties Association wrote a letter to Fredericton Police Chief Barry MacKnight questioning the force's treatment of LeBlanc.
[23] On June 3, 2017, LeBlanc filmed a video interviewing a man later identified as Matthew Raymond, who, in 2018, carried out a mass shooting in Fredericton, killing four people, including two police officers.
[24] In the video, Raymond was seen protesting outside of the legislative building and making inflammatory statements about Muslim immigrants, wearing a sandwich board reading "No Sharia Law".
