"It’s very exciting for Skate Canada to be holding another ISU event. The ISU Grand Prix Final draws from the best in the world and with significant prize money at stake we can expect the competition to be fierce," said William Thompson, Skate Canada CEO. "Quebec City is a beautiful location with a vibrant culture and I know the international skating community will be welcomed with open arms."
When Skate Canada was held in Quebec in '07 the skaters were treated to a 5 star stay at the iconic Chateau Frontenac hotel. Skaters this time around will likely also look forward to a special competition experience.
As in recent years, the Junior Grand Prix Final will also be taking place. In total, there will be 56 entries and 84 skaters taking part in the event. Canada’s Patrick Chan is the current men’s champion, winning the ISU Grand Prix Final title in Beijing, China in December 2010.
