The Skating World Converges in Mississauga for Skate Canada International
October 24, 2022/by Skate Canada
OTTAWA, ON (October 24, 2022) – After a successful weekend at Skate America that saw Canadians win three medals, the ISU Grand Prix series stops in Mississauga, Ontario this week for the 48th edition of Skate Canada International. From October 28-30, some of the best skaters from around the globe will compete for a spot on the podium at the Paramount Fine Foods Centre, including Shoma Uno, Young You, Lilah Fear, Lewis Gibson, Riku Miura, Ryuichi Kihara, plus fifteen of Canada’s top talents.
The men’s team, which will count three entries, will be headlined by veteran and two-time Olympian Keegan Messing. Messing is the current Canadian champion and has gotten off to a stunning start this season, winning gold at the Nebelhorn Trophy. He will be joined by Conrad Orzel, who recently placed 11th at the Finlandia Trophy, as well as Stephen Gogolev, who finished 9th at the U.S. International Figure Skating Classic.
Olympians Madeline Schizas and Gabrielle Daleman will represent Canada in the women’s field. Schizas, the 2022 Canadian Tire National Skating Championships women’s gold medallist, kicked off the competition season with a 5th place at the Nebelhorn Trophy. Teammate Gabrielle Daleman will be competing at her first international event after an excellent domestic season that saw her win gold at the 2022 Skate Canada Challenge and bronze at the 2022 Canadian Tire National Skating Championships.
In the pair discipline, Canada will be sending two young but solid teams, with Brooke McIntosh and Benjamin Mimar setting their sights on the top step of the podium. The pair, who finished third at the ISU World Junior Figure Skating Championships last season, had a breakthrough start to their first senior season, winning bronze at the 2022 Finlandia Trophy earlier this month. Kelly Ann Laurin and Loucas Éthier will also be competing in the event after winning bronze over the weekend at Skate America.
Canada will boast three Olympic teams in ice dance. 2021 Skate Canada International gold medallists Piper Gilles and Paul Poirier will be looking to defend their title after a successful 2021-2022 season that saw the pair claim the Canadian title. Marjorie Lajoie and Zachary Lagha will also be strong contenders for the title, with the team winning two gold medals this year at the Ondre Nepela Memorial and Budapest Trophy. Finally, Marie-Jade Lauriault and Romain Le Gac , who claimed bronze at Skate America, will be replacing Miku Makita and Tyler Gunara due to injury.
Competition starts on Friday, October 28 with every discipline performing their short program/rhythm dance. All medals will be awarded on Saturday, October 29, as all disciplines will perform their free program/free dance. The event concludes on Sunday with the exhibition gala. The event will be live streamed in Canada via skatecanada.ca.

For those in Canada wanting to watch the streaming of Skate Canada International, it currently appears that the CBC stream may be the only option as the ISU YouTube stream may be geoblocked in Canada unless you are able to use a VPN. I may not be able to confirm this before leaving to attend in person so this is just a "heads up".

Scott Russell's location at the Paramount Find Foods Centre (where there is NO fine food to be had) is at the top of the section where my seat is located. [I'm in the 4th row and a known "lurker" here is in the 2nd row of the same section

]
Here's a photo of him with Andi Petrillo - they were very happy to finally be back in the rink just like the fans.
Unfortunately, the "low hanging flags" significantly blocked the view of the big screen - complaints were made yesterday and we are expecting that they will be removed before today's competition - we will see...
Keegan, instead of showing a photo of son Wyatt on his phone in the Kiss 'n Cry, proudly showed off "photos" of the new baby to come!!
Meanwhile, in the stands during a Men's practice, Nam Nguyen was becoming better acquainted with Wyatt

Guess who he was pointing out ...

Wow, I am so impressed with the results. I haven't been able to watch neither skate america nor skate canada, will check GEM or ISU. I also can't believe how quick out of he gates our junior skaters have come, we need to learn a whole new set of names to cheer for.
Thankyou once again Elizabeth for posting your wealth of information on Fred's board.
