    News Skate Canada leadership changes

    Skate Canada CEO William Thompson has announced his retirement.
    And ... "The Board plans no immediate search for a CEO."

    Is it me, or does this news sound strange, given that Canada will be hosting Worlds??

    I forgot to add that Skate Canada -- uncharacteristically -- has not said a word about this news on Twitter or Facebook.
    The press release was posted on the SC website, but on a Friday going into a holiday weekend. Maybe they hoped no one would notice??
    (Meanwhile, they did bother to tweet a "Happy long weekend" message.)

    No, Colleen this is much more Wagnerian than that. It could be the Gotterdammerung. In the past year there have been unheard-of wonders to behold. Top teams have called it quits. The (argueably) top coaching team in the world has split. Skaters from the past are rising from their slumbers to compete again. It gives a person goosebumps.
