In the pairs category, Thierry Ferland, 24, and Lori-Ann Matte, 22, both of Levis, Que. will compete, as well as 38-year-old Deanna Stellato Dudek of Park Ridge, U.S. and 29-year-old Maxime Deschamps of Vaudreuil-Dorion, Que. 

The final entry for Canada is 22-year-old Molly Lanaghan of Doncaster, U.K., and 24-year-old Dmitre Razgulajevs of Ajax. The pair will be competing in ice dance.

The women’s short program began this morning with Daleman placing fifth. 

The next women’s event will be the free skate, which is scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 20 at 1 p.m. Warsaw time or 7 a.m. ET.
