I will say, that it’s GREAT to see 5 of the 6 canoers are from NS and that Connor Fitzpatrick took the win.

[steve giles @canoegiles]

It sure is disappointing seeing just 6 athletes in the sr C-1. I know the benefits of having the trials in California this time of year, but it excludes so many who would benefit from racing against the best in CAN. If it becomes a regular thing it will stunt development for many

First international regatta done. 8th in 500 c1 and 11th in the 200. Fun to watch. Great way to finish off the season.

[steve giles @canoegiles]

Day 4 completed. 4 more medals for the boy. 3 bronze in u18 C2 with Jai and a silver in u18 C15. One day to go.

[steve giles @canoegiles]

1st in 200m. 2nd in 1000m. Good start to Nationals.

[steve giles @canoegiles]

@LacrosseNS Just noticing that ON,AB, BC, and NS all ended up in Pool A. These are the ONLY teams that have showed up at nationals in recent memory. Was it a random draw? If so this looks like terrible luck for Team NS.

[steve giles @canoegiles]

Well, with guys like this in the NHL to look up to, it’s hard for young players to see the value of character. https://t.co/eguRy2nVFe

[Coach Jeremy - How To Hockey @howtohockey]

We need more kids with character and values who will do the right thing in a situation like this. Every coach can help by not only teaching hockey, but also respect, trust and responsibility

I was involved with an early version of OTP and I admit I didn’t see all the consequences clearly. We bought into the idea that sport is about celebrating victory. It’s not. It’s about celebrating the joy and devastation of athletes who give their all and sometimes succeed.

We have sacrificed our children's wellbeing for the ego of a nation.
