Now what about the gays?


In the universe of Skate Canada, the Mohawk is now the C step and the Choctaw is now the S step, if my once-removed (fsuniverse.com) reading of Skate Canada's email is correct.

"This is part of "work[ing] toward the decolonizing of our terminology and align[ing] with our commitment to anti-racism.""
Skate Canada needs to commit to a whole bunch of other stuff while they're at it but I'm not holding my breath.

But as to this refreshed attitude, let's hope we never see another one of these (from 2015 or thereabouts)

I remember when I saw this. I wanted to die. At the same time, everything Bourne skates has this vibe.

(Yes she was a show skater at the time but I've always seen her as exactly Skate Canada's cup of tea.)
