Andre De Grasse anchors Canada to relay redemption after USA DQ'd


By Callum Ng, CBC SportsWhen the 4x100 relays cross the line — wait — history might not be written. ​After Usain Bolt led Jamaica to a third consecutive Olympic gold medal in the men's 4x100-metre relay Friday it appeared that behind them it was Japan, United States and Canada was the respective order. While Bolt and his teammates celebrated his completion of the 'triple-triple,' a re-order was brewing. For the Canadians, disappointment turned to elation when a disqualification to the United States bumped Canada to the bronze-medal position. It was also De Grasse's third medal of the Olympic Games.
