De Grasse of Markham, Ont., won gold in the men’s 200 metres in Tokyo three years ago and owns six Olympic medals to make him Canada’s most decorated man in Summer Olympic Games history. Charron of Rimouski, Que., captured weightlifting gold in the women’s 64-kilogram division in Tokyo. De Grasse will compete in his third Olympic Games and Charron her second, but both will participate in their first opening ceremonies. They will bear Canada’s flag in a unique event. The parade of more than 200 participating countries will happen on the River Seine with the athletes arriving on boats, instead of the traditional march into a stadium. Canada’s team in Paris numbers 338 athletes including alternates. 0 comment 0 FacebookTwitterPinterestEmail admin previous post اختبار يثبت “تعاطي” أسماك قرش في البرازيل للكوكايين next post Two teens face slew of weapons offences for disturbance in Bedford You may also like تعديل وزاري مرتقَب بعد إعلان أربعة وزراء عدم... 18 أكتوبر، 2024 ترودو يقول إنّ مقتل السنوار ’’ينهي عهداً من... 18 أكتوبر، 2024 Homelessness is not stopping this Halifax man from... 18 أكتوبر، 2024 More details expected on proposed deal that would... 18 أكتوبر، 2024 Gas prices increase, diesel drops overnight in Nova... 18 أكتوبر، 2024 حكومة فورد تخطط لمنح كل شخص شيك بـ200... 18 أكتوبر، 2024 دعم مالي وللاستقرار في كندا للفلسطينيين القادمين من... 18 أكتوبر، 2024 الرعاية الصحية في رأس أولويات سكان ساسكاتشِوان 18 أكتوبر، 2024 Former Canadian Olympic snowboarder charged by FBI for... 18 أكتوبر، 2024 PM Trudeau to shuffle cabinet as four ministers... 18 أكتوبر، 2024
