3. It’s playoffs fever!!! Can you spot the Dufour-Lapointe sisters in this video?
Where are Maxime, Chloé and Justine??? Look them up at 1:41, 3:13 and 4:12 secs!
4. A balancing act.
For Canadian Sochi medallist Kelsey Serwa, striking a balance has a different meaning than for most of us…
5. Just saying…
Canadian bobsledder Jesse Lumsden’s dog may not be training as hard as his master. But who are we to say?
6. While some of us are catching rays on the beach, Caroline Ouellette is celebrating the success of her Arctic trek to the North Pole – land of the midnight sun.
Ouellette undertook this daunting challenge with fellow hockey player Geneviève Lacasse in support of the True Patriot Love Foundation.
7. Sochi medallist Mike Riddle can really spring in action!
He obviously knows a thing or two about freestyle selfieing…
8. An underwater catwalk fit for an Olympic synchronized swimmer (Karine Thomas) – simply picture-perfect
