"Somewhere In Time" was one of my favourite movies when I was younger and the first movie I cried to... probably because of the music. So, as we where looking for music for the 2006 Olympic year, I played that soundtrack for Patrice and he loved it right away. We then decided to ask our friend, famous Canadian choreographer David Wilson, to help us put it together and that's how magic happened. David doesn't normally work with ice dancers so it was sort of a gamble but we joked around thinking that if between the three of us we can't create a masterpiece... then nobody can. And we did!

“We learned a lot this year, and we want to keep learning more. When you get to senior, the older teams who have been there for a while, you don’t want to be them, but you just want to learn from them and apply it to your own character.”

“Somehow I knew that we will skate well. It was like in practice. We’ve skated programs like this in practice, even better ones. You get that feeling – today it could work out. This is what you wish for and then it happened exactly like you wished for. It was a magical moment”.

“I’ve always loved Cinderella since I was 2 years old,” she said of her music choice. “At 3 my mom made me a Halloween costume, a Cinderella dress. When the movie came out (in 2015), I went to see the movie about 10 times; I actually watched it on the plane ride here, it never gets old. I just love the character, I love the story, I look like her.

“It’s something that I’ve always identified with, and with all the struggles I’ve had in the past I felt like this season was a good time to skate to this music.”

“As soon as the music finished, we realized we already won in our mind, so that was kind of our moment to let in everything and thank the audience for their support”
