Episode This Week in Skating / Canadians Preview with Kirsten Moore-Towers
The 2024 Canadian National Skating Championships, better known as Canadians, will take place from January 8-14 at the WinSport Arena at Canada Olympic Park in Calgary, Alberta.
To help Daphne and Gina preview Canadians, they were joined by four-time Canadian National Champion and Olympic silver medalist Kirsten Moore-Towers.
Before their event discussion, Daphne and Gina briefly addressed the USA Today article by Christine Brennan, which details a sexual assault allegation against 2022 Olympian Nikolaj Sorensen.
