Skate Canada finished up this past week, and the Canadians proved that they're still a force to be reckon with. The Canadians managed to rack up two golds and two silvers.
Quebec native Joannie Rochette took home the gold in the women's event. The Canadians continued medaling when Jessica Dube and Bryce Davidson received bronze in the pairs events.
It was no surprise that Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir would win for ice dance, however, it was Kaitlyn Weaver and Andrew Poje who surprised everyone by placing third in ice dance.
Patrick Chan placed a shocking sixth in the men's event. However this is the first competition he's been in since his injury. So it'll take him some time before he's back performing at 100%.
Overall, it was a good showing for the Canadians especially on home ice. In only a few months the Canadians will return home again to compete in Vancouver for the 2010 Winter Olympic Games.
