    The Canadian contingent is doing well both on the chessboards and in the playing hall.

    Team Canada 50+ (D.Ross, P.Ross, M. Barron, D.Chernik) demonstrated good fighting chess in the first two rounds. Follow Canada's progress.

    Canadian arbiters had a nice day of rest after the completion of European events in Rhodes, and commenced the WSTC with renewed enthusiasm.
