Gordon Ritchie writes: "Sunday chess at Ottawa's RA chess club got off to a brisk start with 15 players braving the weather to compete in the five-round swiss rapid tournament. The ultimate winner was Christian Collins who defeated second-place Svitlana Demchenko in the final round to win with an impressive 4.5 points. Svitlana had to settle for 4.0 while John Upper and Glen Barber had 3.5."
