The Canadian team has truly outdone themselves on the Twittersphere since the Olympic games. Now every swimmer on the women’s roster has Twitter account along with only two missing on the men’s side…impressive.
The Canadians tweet pretty much about every day life with the odd tweet about fur trading, maple syrup, or their complaints of lack of WiFi in Igloos. A lot of the team this year are new swimmers so don’t be afraid to click some of the young guys accounts for some entertainment.

Obviously you dont know who Ashton is. He is definitetly NOT, in fact he is probably the funniest person I know.
Ashton is on my team and honestly you wouldn’t want to look at his twitter if he had one, he is the COCKIEST person I know, a close second is fellow team mate Richard
Wow someone is very pathetic and jealous maybe you should focus on your own personality before commenting on someone else!
That would make you on EKSC. Any jealous breastrokers over there?
Swimswam, do you have to include that picture every time you write about Canadian swimming. it ruins my day and also does not good to Canadian swimming. What a terrible breaststroke position.
Yep, every time. Just for you. We had an editorial meeting, and were trying to decide if we should use this, or just go with a picture of Brendan Hansen, the only man to swim real breaststroke in the history of the sport, as the headline for every article on the site. This won.
Bad decision, but, oh well. Daniel Gyurta would be good too.
Tommy Gossland tweeted yesterday: “7x100m free relay tonight to decide who’s on the 4×100 next week at World Championships!”
An objective way to pick relay swimmers. It would be fantastic if teams filmed these internal competitions and uploaded them on their youtube channels or on such places.
