Canada adds two medals at short-track world championships
Canada defended its men's relay title and earned silver in the mixed relay, finishing with three medals, seven fewer than last year's championships, officials said.
- On Sunday, Canada won gold in the men's 5,000-metre relay and silver in the mixed 2,000-metre relay at the ISU Short Track World Championships in Montreal.
- The men's relay quartet of Félix Roussel, Maxime Laoun, Steven Dubois, and William Dandjinou defended their world title, while Italy claimed the mixed relay victory.
- Earlier Sunday, Dandjinou was disqualified from the 1,000-metre final for blocking South Korea's Rim Jong-un during his sprint finish, making his relay gold a significant reversal of fortune.
- Italy's Pietro Sighel overtook Canada on the final lap of the mixed relay, mirroring the podium results from last month's Milan Cortina Olympics with Italy, Canada, and Belgium.
- Canada concluded the championships with three medals, two fewer than at last month's Milan Cortina Olympics and seven fewer than at last year's world championships.
