2021 04 02 UPDATE
Due to the latest government restrictions across Canada we have made the difficult decision to postpone this event. We are working with the NSO, other PSOs, as well as the IF3 to determine the best date that will still allow athletes to qualify for the World Championships. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
