Canada Chases Early Glory at the Winter Games

 

Canada's James Crawford didn't repeat his winning training time during the men's downhill in Bormio on Saturday. He finished ninth with a time of 1:52.58. 

Canada opened its Winter Olympics campaign with a full slate of high‑stakes action, chasing its first medals across the ice, slopes, and jumps. With several marquee events underway, the nation’s athletes are pushing to set the tone for the weeks ahead.

In speed skating, Canada’s long‑track and short‑track teams hit the ice with confidence, aiming to convert strong World Cup form into podium finishes. On the slopes, Canadian snowboarders and freestyle skiers—longtime powerhouses in big air and slopestyle—launched into qualification rounds with trademark flair, drawing early buzz for medal potential.

But one of the most anticipated moments of the day came when the women’s hockey team finally stepped onto Olympic ice. As defending champions and one of Canada’s most dominant sports dynasties, their debut instantly energized fans back home. With a deep roster and a fierce rivalry with the United States looming later in the tournament, expectations are sky‑high.

It’s only the beginning, but Canada’s athletes are already shaping the narrative of these Games. If today’s performances are any indication, the country could be in for a memorable Olympic run.
