Oh I see. I was thinking maybe Japan can send Suzuki to Canada!

Not sure if Adriana actually has citizenship. You only need it to compete in the Olympics. I don't know how releasing a skater to skate for a different country works. But lots of skaters skate for a country without being citizens of that country. For example, Kaitlyn Weaver skated for Canada prior to getting citizenship (which she now has).

Adriana DeSanctis
3lz/2t, 3sal/2t, 3f (hand), 3t (tight), 3lz, 3sal (step), 2a-2a sequence
A nice performance, needs more bend in her knee and look into the audience more. Show a bit more confidence and she'll be great. CBC said she moved to Barrie, ON to train at age 12. She is now 22 and waitresses to support her training.

Depends who you ask. The residency requirements aren't that stringent (3 years, may be accelerated)

One of the team members needs to be from Canada, though.

Jessica isn't doing well. Not to sound churlish, but I'm almost glad - I'd rather the top five skaters be ... well, single skaters.

ks, I think Canada should send a mass invite to every Japanese ladies skater!

Oh, that makes a lot of sense! Thanks for the clarification!

Great skate for her! 3lp, 3f, 3lp/2lp/2lp, 3 lz (hand), 3f/2t, 3sal, 1a
She has improved so much over the years. Great expression and much more relaxed skating than I have seen in the past. Nicely packaged too!
