[snip] This is already reality in Canadian figure skating. Myriane Samson won the Canadian Junior Women's Championship this year, but she was stunned when Skate Canada told her that she would not be sent to the World Junior Championship - - Skate Canada felt that someone else would be a better representative. In fact, there are many examples of Skate Canada and the United States Figure Skating Association choosing their representatives regardless of who actually won the competitions. Needless to say, it calls into question the validity of the competition.
