It’s My Favourite Time of Year!
It's my favourite time of year. For some people it's Christmas, for others it's summer holidays. For me it's the Canadian Figure Skating Championships. I know, I know, Worlds are intense and the Olympics are uplifting, but the Canadian Championships are the heart of figure skating in this country.
Here are my picks for this year's champions:
Men: Jeffrey Buttle
Women: Joannie Rochette
Pairs: Valérie Marcoux & Craig Buntin, though I'm expecting a very good showing from Jessica Dubé & Bryce Davison.
Dance: Marie-France Dubreuil & Patrice Lauzon
I know, I know, my picks are pretty traditional. The skaters I'm most interested in watching are Jessica Dubé & Bryce Davison and Cynthia Phaneuf who put in a great qualifying skate yesterday.
