  1. Wow–the athleticism and power of these young women is incredible; they are paddling faster than I could run! Congrads, Katie, yay!!

  2. One thing I love about the Olympics is how random and diverse the sports are.

    Yesterday I watched 2-person synchronized swimming, then long jump, then skateboarding and now I'm watching canoe sprinting.

  3. It is also noteworthy that Katie's time is also WB (World's Best) meaning this is the fastest women's 200 metre canoe sprint ever recorded.

  4. World's best. Way to go, Katie.

    What a close finish. Basically it was at what point of the stroke each was in that made the difference.

  5. Katie is golden. That was a crazy finish. Nevin raced a hell of a race too. But Katie's determination was not going to be denied.

  6. Well done Katie
    Congratulations

  7. Olympic record. Represent. Wow. Now if CBC can come clean about male boxer with XY chromosome in women's boxing is unfair , then we can protect all women sports and spaces. Woke Olympics. World record – amazing.

  8. I'm so glad she doesn't train at Elk Lake. I got beef with the rowing club there. Apparently it's canada's home of Olympic rowers. Always disturbing my fishing with their megaphones and loud engines for the coach's boats, creating big wakes. Never thought people in canoes could be so annoying. Good for here though. Good ol' mississauga girl!
