Montreal will be hosting a downtown parade for many of Canada's Olympic and Paralympic Athletes on April 23rd. Tessa and Scott are listed as athletes scheduled to be there! :)

And guys, what you think about Fedor Andreev could skate with Yana Khohlova? Tessa will be there coach? :lol:
That would be great. :lol: He is tall enough for her and jana will put him in line if he misbehaves. ;) since Shabalin can't skate much longer, and Plushenko doesn't like to create COP friendly programs, maybe he can switch to ice dance with Domnina. A Domnina/Plushenko pairing would be heavenly.

Thanks Jayta.

Has the 'no depression dances' rule actually been made or is it just not being discussed.

I really like this version, especially love the pink dress. I also loved their Worlds version of Mahler more than Vancouver, it has a different approach, a more subtle interpretation.

Just so you're aware, You can't drink on the streets in Vancouver as it is illegal and as this was one of the official sites in downtown Vancouver to watch events I imagine the police presence was pretty strong. Maybe these Canadians were just super-excited to see the winning of a gold medal in ice dance which has NEVER been done by a Canadian team. As a Vancouverite I take exception and offense to your assumption that these people were drunk. Unless you were there and were watching them guzzle alcohol I don't think you should make a statement like this.

As a Vancouverite myself, I take offence to you not having a sense of humour. I linked to the video to show how "Canadians were just super-excited to see the winning of a gold medal in ice dance which has NEVER been done by a Canadian team."

And just so you're aware, the video did not take place at a livesite. It was at the outdoor CTV studio where any person could come and hang out.

And because drinking in public is illegal in Vancouver, people can't be drunk on the streets? Do you really live in Vancouver or do you live in Chilliwack?

HA! I was at the Olympics during the dance event, and there were definitely many drunken people on the streets (publicly drinking and some drunk to the point of throwing up on the sidewalks) on Friday and Saturday night! :lol:
