Canadian ice dance pair, Piper Gilles and Paul Poirier, win their fourth consecutive Skate Canada gold medal. They scored 131.46 in the free dance, bringing their total score to 219.01. Great Britain's Lilah Fear and Lewis Gibson finish second, while Lithuania's Allison Reed and Saulius Ambrulevicius come in third. Gilles and Poirier express their joy and gratitude for their success and acknowledge the inspiration they received from previous ice dance teams.
The pair, skating in a competition for the first time since Gilles shared her ovarian cancer diagnosis in May, had a score of 131.46 in the free dance for a total score of 219.01.
"It's been a long road for us, especially teaming up as we had our different careers," said Ambrulevicius. "Long work and dreams do come true." Kaori Sakamoto continued her momentum, and dominance, in the women's competition at Skate Canada International to claim gold on Saturday. Sakamoto celebrated her winning result alongside her coach by pretending to eat a giant stuffed piece of sushi given to her by a fan from the crowd."I had an ankle injury last week so I was worried, so even though the program wasn't perfect I hope the results are good," she said.
Schizas said her short program score on the first day of the event was the lowest score she's ever posted outside of competing as a junior. A woman with family in the Gaza Strip says she doesn't know if she will see any of her relatives again as communication becomes limited due to a blackout there amid the three-week war between Israel and Hamas.Around 200 local vendors are scrambling after an upcoming Christmas market was cancelled because the event organizer lost their deposit money.
