It may be that somewhere handed back some women's spots and one of them was allocated to you. I can't explain men's, though, unless there has been a rule change.
By the allocation rules for Singles and Ice Dance, it's only group B (1 spot in 7 events) that can pick up additional spots. They shouldn't have picked up the additional spot for Women by the 2025-26 rules. Canada was group B for Ice Dance, so those 13 spots make sense.

Thank you for this. Lots of novice entries too from Canada! So glad to see Rui Qin back competing. I know he struggled last year and didn't compete at Ontario Sectionals (injured?). He has a great presence on ice so looking forward to his programs this year - actually everybody's programs. Feels like Christmas

FWIW I’ve always referred to Lauriault/LeGac as the Panthers, in honor of their iconic Pink Panther program.So... here is an ice dance breakdown
LaLe = Lauriault Le Gac
F/Z= Fournier-Zhu
RoPo = Robinson-Portz
Bakerie (or LaBakerie for those who insist on putting articles everywhere
Spa = Sandrine Gauthier and Paul Ayer
Alicia's Nose = Alicia and Marko. Okay.. I am kidding about the last one.
I do like SPA for Gauthier/Ayer!

I chose to portmanteau their first names because I couldn't do so with their last names.
I hadn't realised Reese was moving up to seniors internationally. I think she would have benefitted from more international experience at junior level because she has struggled in international events despite doing well in many home ones.
It's a domestic competition, so it matches her domestic level. I think she's staying Junior internationally since she is on NextGen, but she is eligible for Seniors now.

@4everchan, didn't we discuss Thierry Ferland as a potential new partner for Deanna? Well, at least he's coming back to competition

indeed. He is one of the few male partners in Canada strong enough for Deanna. But I guess it won't happen.
Well... I am actually not surprised they are back together LOL. They were fun. SBS jumps were an issue for Lori-Ann but I am glad that they are realizing that they can skate together no matter the issues as long as they are happy with that.
Took them 3 years
Very happy for them.
Videos from Lake Placid have been showing up here, no music since it's USFS - https://cinematic-images.smugmug.com/SPORTS/2026-LAKE-PLACID-FIGURE-SKATING/ALL-VIDEOS
Reese did a 3F-3T in her short. David B did a backloaded 3Lz-3A-eu-3S in his free.

Wow. Both are upgrading their combos. I love it.
Fee Ann’s 3F 3T< was a shock to me at 4CC.
Reese’s 3F 3T got negative GOE. But, wow!! Our Canadian Ladies are getting stronger. She would have made a solid case for herself for a JGP spot, had she not doubled the lutz. The most important single jump for this season.
Also, David combo is
A shame he only added a double toe on his next combo though
I used to compare the scores to the 166 and 219 benchmarks. I have no idea what a good score is anymore….

nobody knows.. not even Skate Canada
Also, shout out to Miroslava and Vladimir in junior pairs SP. An attempted triple twist. This team needs to be added to NextGen now
The 2A landed single jump is easy for them. Only a 2Lo throw though. But, this team looks promising for two JGP events.
Miroslava is a talented singles skater capable of 2A, 3S and 3Lo single jumps. She finished 7th in PreNovice Nationals in 2025 and 12th in Novice Nationals in 2026. She stood out to me with her 3Lo at Skate Trophy. Too bad there is no free skate to see what jumps they would attempt together.

That is a clever layout if he lands it consistently.
