Members of the national team are presently in the Toronto area attending the annual high performance camp and showing their 2017/18 programs to judges and consultants. They are also doing media interviews. PJ Kwong is among those in attendance and tweeting.

Skate Canada (and others) are using the hashtag #HPCamp17 to post on various social media platforms, including some videos that are up (briefly) on Snapchat.
