Interestingly, China has opted not to send any skaters to the Junior Worlds for some reason.

Junior Canadian Skaters Look to Make Mark at 2024 World Junior Figure Skating Championships
February 21, 2024/by Skate Canada
OTTAWA, ON (February 21, 2024) – Canada’s up-and-coming figure skaters have big goals for the 2024 ISU World Junior Figure Skating Championships, which will take place in Taipei City, Taipei from February 26 to March 3, 2024. Team Canada will feature two pair teams, three ice dance teams, two men, and two women.
Pair team Ava Kemp and Yohnatan Elizarov placed sixth at the 2023 World Junior Championships held in Calgary, Alta., and will enter this year’s competition riding a high after capturing a silver medal at the ISU Grand Prix Final, gold at the Junior Grand Prix (JGP) Solidarity Cup in Gdansk, Poland, and gold at the 2024 Canadian National Skating Championships (nationals). They will be joined by Martina Ariano Kent and Charly Laliberté-Laurent who finished fourth at the Grand Prix Final, won gold at the JGP Cup of Austria, bronze at the JGP Budapest, and took silver at nationals.
The ice dance competition will feature all of the junior medallists from nationals with gold medallists Layla Veillon and Alexander Brandys, silver medallists Chloe Nguyen and Brendan Giang – who also captured silver at the JGP Cup of Austria, and bronze medallists Alisa Korneva and Kieran MacDonald. All teams will be looking to gain valuable experience on the international stage.
The men’s event will be promising after both skaters recently podiumed in the senior men’s competition at nationals. Aleksa Rakic captured silver at the event and also finished fourth at the 2023 Cranberry Cup and fifth at the Nebelhorn Trophy. 2023 national junior bronze medallist Anthony Paradis delivered an inspired performance to claim bronze at his first senior nationals.
Kaiya Ruiter will look to cap off a strong season at the event after earning her first Canadian senior championships title in January, and silver medals at Skate Canada Challenge and the Autumn Classic International. She finished tenth at the World Junior Championships last year that were held in her hometown of Calgary, Alta. She’ll be joined by Lulu Lin who continues her climb up the ranks after being crowned the junior Canadian champion in January and finishing seventh at the Junior Grand Prix Solidarity Cup in Poland.

The 6-hour marathon of the Jr. Women SP (which I slept through) ended with these results:
Not a very good result for our Sr. Canadian champion - she will be in the first warm-up group for the free skate

The Jr Men skated while I slept (and the Board was unavailable) but here are the results:
The top 3 with their small medals
Anthony Paradis was happy with his skate, even if it wasn't perfect
An excellent result for Aleksa Rakic

I woke up in time to see the Jr Pairs FS - there were quite a few problems for many of the teams, unfortunately.
The FS results:
The overall results:
Luka Berulava became the first skater to win Junior Worlds with different partners.
The last time two pairs teams were on the podium at Junior Worlds was 2006 with Julia Vlassov/ Drew Meekins and Kendra Moyle/Andy Seitz. Drew is the coach of Flores/Wang and Williams/Lewer.
The Top 3:

After an evening "nap", I stayed up and watched the Rhythm Dance live last night/overnight. The results:
The press conference photo, complete with small medals
After that I headed to bed (about 4 a.m.), opting not to watch the Jr Women Free Skate. I was pleased to find out the results this morning with a CDN placing in the top 6 in the FS and in the top 10 overall. The overall placement will have positive consequences for JGP and Jr Worlds placements next season.
