In each of these episodes you will hear from someone with an Ontario skating connection. We have an amazing group of guests lined up for future episodes, so be sure to follow Skate Ontario on social media so you don’t miss an episode, and don’t forget to use the hashtag: #LTAI.

Our very first guest needs no introduction. Piper Gilles is a 2x Olympian, 3x Canadian Ice Dance Champion and 3x World Figure Skating Championship Medalist.

Imagine being at the peak of your skating career, with all the good things in life ahead of you, and the very unexpected happens: Cancer. That’s Piper Gilles’ story, or at least a part of it. Come listen to how Piper addressed her ovarian cancer head on and then went on to win a world medal with partner Paul Poirier. This is a story of inspiration, perseverance, and hope.
