New CDN Pairs team - Fiona Bombardier & Benjamin Mimar

This is where we discuss figure skating and skating related items. How did you favourite skaters perform, and so on? However we never speculate on the private lives of skaters, like who might be going out with whom, because that is poison and is not tolerated here. A good guideline is that if it's not publicly announced, in the papers etc. then it's probably best to leave it alone. Is it a gray area? Then write to me and ask.

I am hoping to see Fiona & Benjamin compete today at the Skate Ontario Sectional event. He was sitting beside me during the Junior RD last evening :)

Meanwhile, Brooke MacIntosh, Benjamin's former partner, is awaiting a release from Skate Canada in order to represent Spain with Marco Zandron.


Edited to add that the release was granted.

As we know, Fiona and Benjamin have been competing both internationally and nationally through this season.

Rob Brodie has a new article up on this team which includes information about a fracture of her hand that Fiona suffered :(
