Annika Behnke/Kole Sauve (Pairs, Canada) were removed from the Junior Pairs TES statistics page, current as of June 18, 2024.
Other Canadian teams that split/retired were removed from the statistics. They're registered as singles for several domestic competitions in Canada, so this is confirmation that they have split.

Both of them were good with their former partners, so they'll definitely be in the hunt for Olympic qualification (which is probably why we're going to be seeing them now).
I wonder if a unified team for the figure skating team competition could happen like the Ice Hockey team at the 2018 Olympics.
South Korea has competitive entries in both singles disciplines and a decent ice dance team, but no pairs team.

Daniela and her former partner, David Goldshetyn, trained with Matthew and his former partner, Kristina Bland, under Igor Shpilband in Detroit. So, Daniela and Matthew probably began working together after they both lost their former partners. Looks like a good fit for both. Plus, it's nice for Matthew to be able to rep Finland since the U.S. is stocked full of talented ice dancers with few opportunities to break through to the top.

New pair for Iceland (in fact, the very first pair for Iceland): Júlía Sylvía Gunnarsdóttir / Manuel Piazza 
Julia was a singles skater before and Manuel (obviously) competed for Italy with Anna Valesi.

^^ Ah, how cool for Iceland! 
The way these two are staring into each other's eyes, I imagine they have known each other for awhile as competitors and friends in the skating world. It appears they decided to form an interesting pair team post Piazza's split with Valesi. Are they training in Italy? In any case, Iceland is seemingly conducive as a location for building ice skating talent and an enthusiastic, albeit chill audience!

That's a pity as she was quite a memorable skater, but I wish her the best in her new life path. Did she give any reasons?Dutch singles skater in women, Lindsay van Zundert, is retiring at the age of 19.

She did. She found herself having lost the motivation to train, especially since her two Idols died at the beginning of the year. Both Joan Haanappel and Sjoukje Dijkstra (Olympic champion 1964) inspired her and their deaths were a blow.
