Four members retire from Skate Canada national teams

It's official.

I wish Shawn a long happy show career and success in any thing else he chooses to be involved in.

I'm surprised to see Diane Szmiett retiring already!

I don't see why she would continue.

I am not surprised that Shawn and Joey have retired from competing. It's too bad the two junior skaters have decided to move on. I wish all of these skaters the best in their futures.

Shawn was so original! I wish him a bright future in show skating.

Well Russel and Sawyer both were amazing artistically and I believe will succeed far better in show skating. Unfortunately the beauty of figure skating is lost among the sea of jumping mistakes when jumping mistakes occur. These are two great figure skaters and I wish them the best of luck in shows.
As for the two Juniors, well interests change unforutnately.
