2022 Skate Canada - Mississauga! (Excitement/Planning Thread)

[quartz]

Fishing? In Mississauga? Are you going to let him come?

The Credit - salmon and trout come in from Lake Ontario to spawn in the river.

The Humber is also good for fly fishing

Well then he should go! This Northern Ontario girl keeps forgetting you can fish “down there”.

Yeah, there‘s a few cricks, a couple of ponds we prone-to-exaggeration-Southerners refer to as lakes (Erie, Ontario - you can spit across them when the wind is right) an obscure trickly bit known locally as Niagara Falls, and then that bucket of water eventually flows into the tiny stream of the St.Lawrence which then empties it’s few gallons into the minor tub of the Atlantic Ocean.
Ya gotta make the most of what ya got, right?
The husband caught a fish in 1993! and another in 2006! so we know for sure there are definitely fish in these parts! Bring your husband and he can join in the fishing adventure fun “down here” too!

Bahahaha! I totally deserved that.

Seriously, bring your husband - he and mine would get along just fine - they could fish (river fishing, not boat fishing, so chest waders and hiking are required), and talk about northern Ontario things. My husband was born in your town and has family history up in that area with the railroads.
And they can shake their heads in bewildered solidarity at their weird wives who like to watch guys in sparkles and ruffles twirl about in skates.

 

[once_upon]

Mine is coming with me. I'm not sure if he would attend any if the competition or not but we intend to come on Monday before to do some things in Toronto

Will Skate Canada be the first event hosted by Canada to have a crowd since Canadian Nationals in 2020?

Skate Canada 2021 in Vancouver had an audience.

I will be there - I paid my deposit to my tour group late yesterday, as soon as I received their e-mailed package.

Pre-sale...how do I qualify for pre sale status?

I think you'll get the pre-sale code if you're on Skate Canada's mailing list - at least that's how it has worked in the past.

The Skate Canada e-mail went out today @once_upon - it contained the code for the presale which starts tomorrow.

 

[kimkom]

Got my email too!

I can’t buy my ticket until later in the afternoon - hope there’s some left!

I'm on vacation this week, so I was out all day today and missed the email - the alert I got when you quoted my post was what clued me in!

 

[kimkom]

I’m working from home because I have the crud, so I’ll have no interruptions at 10:00 sharp like I usually do. Yay for the crud!!

 

[Wyliefan]

Well, I'm glad that worked out, but feel better soon!

 

[once_upon]

It won't let me get tickets, I don't live in Canada and don't have a Canada Province or Canada zip code.

See you Monday I guess

There’s a phone number - can you try calling instead?

FWIW, the only tickets available on the long side of the rink opposite the judges started at Row H. Maybe you'll have access to better seats in the general sale?

 

[Aaron MB Fan]

[JoannaLouise]

Is P1 ($300) the only level that's available in the presale?
