Ottawa, February 23, 2026 – Eight Para alpine skiers have been nominated to compete for Canada at the Milano Cortina 2026 Paralympic Winter Games, the Canadian Paralympic Committee and Alpine Canada announced Monday. In the past I’ve been so narrowly focused on winning I forgot to appreciate all it took to even get to the Games and the accomplishment that is in itself.”Guimond, also a co-captain of the Milano Cortina 2026 Canadian Paralympic Team, is a two-time medallist. The athletes will be joined in Italy by a support staff led by high performance director Matt Hallat (a three-time Paralympian in Para alpine skiing) and head coach Will Marshall.
