WOMEN’S HOCKEY!

Marie-Philip Poulin.
The only hockey player – female or male – to score in four Olympic gold medal games.
Truly Captain Canada. The greatest.

Canadian women’s gold medal soccer game: 4.4 million viewers.
Canadian women’s gold medal hockey game: 2.7 million viewers.

Canadian Olympic athletes who won medals in either Tokyo or Beijing are being financially rewarded for their efforts — $20,000 for a gold, $15,000 for a silver and $10,000 for a bronze
Canadian Paralympians who reached the podium in those same Games won't receive a single dollar

@Devin_Heroux
Chantal Peticlerc, one of Canada's most greatest athletes with 14 gold and 21 medals won in her career, would have made $375,000 for all of her podium performances at the five Paralympics in which she competed.
Instead she didn’t receive a single dollar.

@Devin_Heroux
What became apparent to me while working on this story is how many people had no idea Canadian Paralympians were not paid for medals while Olympians were.
To say there's frustration is an understatement.
The gap is staggering.

@Devin_Heroux
The Olympic Paralympic medal funding gap issue is really a microcosm of the broader issue.
There needs to be a collective shift on value and importance placed on the Paralympics.
Sponsors. Media. Stakeholders. Representation. This is a complete and total communal effort.

What the Ukrainian athletes have done at the Paralympics is remarkable.
20 athletes have won 28 medals = 10 gold. 10 silver. 8 bronze. Second-most at the Games.
It's their most successful Winter Paralympics.

GUSHUE FOR THE WIN
HISTORIC
@TeamGushue defeats Koe to become the first three-man team to ever win the Brier.
That's now four Brier titles in six years for the team from Newfoundland and Labrador.
This one for Gushue, with three players, absolutely legendary. #cbccurl

Every hotel lobby should have a dog like Winston.
He was actually meant to be a guide dog but failed his training mainly because he was too friendly.
So now he welcomes people to the @FairmontEmpress in Victoria.
Here’s more about Winston: cbc.ca/amp/1.4975838

Only four women in history have swam the 400m freestyle event under four minutes.
Canada's 15-year-old Summer McIntosh is one of them.
3:59.39 at the world championships today. Remarkable. @CBCOlympics
