Hey, Canadian women would have 3 relay bronzes from Paris if cheating China didn't bribe FIFA, but life's unfair.

Women
Gold-  Marielle Thompson 
Silver-  Fanny Smith
Bronze-  Daniela Maier
 
Participation seems to be a serious issue still, with only 21 women competing, and I would only consider 12 or 13 of those to be world class… (contender for big/small finals)
 
Men
Gold-  Simone Deromedis
Silver-  Florian Wilmsmann
Bronze-  Kevin Drury

MSH's first ever International medal (individually)

Plus also two more Bronze medals for Finlay Knox in the 200IM and the 4x100m relay.

McIntosh WR for the 400m Freestyle on the first day of the SC World Championships!
 
Also bronze for Mary-Sophie Harvey!

In the end he won silver!
 
another Silver for the mixed 4x50m relay and bronze for Wilm in the 100m back. 

Could have been a bronze for Tierney and gold in the mixed relay if Russia wasn't competing

So Kharun split 20.73 on his butterfly leg today in the relay. That's the fastest split ever by 0.87 seconds.
 
Pretty good first couple days overall I'd say

1:59.32! McIntosh with her second WR of the week, this time in the women’s 200m butterfly 

1:48.24 CR for Kharun, gold in the men’s 200m butterfly! 

It better be...

Canada should win more gold medals. As for total medals, I think we have a good chance to win more.

Surely better

Another day another Canadian record
