When did they change it from a continent-based competition to country-based.

They didn't. World Team Trophy has always been this way.

Team Challenge Cup is continent based. TCC and WTT alternate years.

During the competition at Shoma KnC, Coach Fluffy holds up a poster that says:

DEAR BRIAN,

I AM CHERRY BLOSSOM
AND YOU ARE MY MAPLE LEAF
WILL YOU COME TO THE PROM WITH ME?

I was at Skate Oakville's gala on the weekend where Alaine Chartrand performed and it was announced that she would be at the WTT.

But I thought that both Kaetlyn and Gabby are required to participate in WTT due to their placements at Worlds? :confused:

Only skaters who are first in the rankings for their and country who finish in the top ten at Worlds are required to go, so only Kaetlyn is required to go.

If I have understood the announcement correctly, both Kaetlyn and Gabby are required to go.

Any Skater/Couple from a Qualified ISU Member, who placed within the first ten (10) places at the ISU World Figure Skating Championships 2017 and is ranked in the ISU World Standings among the best 2 Lady Single Skaters, best 2 Men Single Skaters, the best Pair Skating couple and the best Ice Dance couple of his/her/their respective Qualified ISU Member

so would that mean that Weapo are going?

as much as I'd love to see Tessa/Scott once more smashing life out of Prince SD, I will be equally excited to see WeaPo (in general I'd love to see all 3 Canadian ice dance teams once again in action!!!)

Wiki seems to have updated their WTT page with team members aside from France and China but there's nothing officially announced except by Russia and Japan, right? Pretty sure it's speculation and Wiki is just using the guidelines to guess. I'd think D/R would stay home due to Eric's injury, though, and an alternate pair would be sent.

Nooooooo:curse: 
Why aren't P/C coming? 
I bought the ticket 7 month ago hoping to watch their free dance.
I am very, very disappointed:sad21:

About P/C not going: they are France only chance of medal in OG. This also why this year there is not French tour. I understand people being disappointed but I understand why they choose with their fédération not to go.
