Reporters and photographers from the London area viewed a promotional video about the Scott Tournament of Hearts (taking place in London from February 25 to March 5 at the JLC), took photos of Canada’s “Number One” curling team, and participated in a question-and-answer session with Peter Inch and Jennifer Jones and the members of her team. As well, the media and several LCC members had the opportunity to meet and greet the 2005 STOH second-place skip Jenn Hanna, whose spectacular performance in the final game of the 2005 women’s final has made her a fan favourite.

It’s acknowledged throughout the world that nowhere is competition as keen and the path to the top so strewn with obstacles as in Canada.

Julie Sutton's team from Victoria, the winner of the 1991 Scotties Tournament of Hearts, represented Canada at the 1992 Winter Olympics in France.

  • A Dream Come True!
    Issue 6 – Thursday, February 21, 2013 • An Official Publication of the Canadian Curling Association. Hurry, Haaard! Whoa! Canada Skip Heather Nedohin guides sweeprs Laine Peters (left) and Jessica Mair Wednesday morning. Canada suffered its only defeat thus far to Manitoba’s Jennifer Jones. Jones and Ontario’s Rachel Homan are the lone undefeated teams here in Kingston. They face off Thursday morning. ANDREW KLAVER/ CCA Sponsor of the Day A DREAM COME TRUE! Since 2000, I have had the privilege of playing in the Scotties eight times. In the process, I have made tremendous friendships with curling fans from coast to coast. Now with the Scotties coming to Montreal in 2014, it is our opportunity to repay all of the great hospitality. It is my personal wish that you can be there to experience the charm of Montreal, and a Scotties Tournament of Hearts like no other. Soyez-Y! Tickets on sale now! For details, visit February 1-9, 2014 • Maurice Richard Arena • Montreal, QC See Sponsor Profile on page 15 Page 2 HeartChart Day 5: Clash of Titans set BY JIM MORRIS It might have been just one more win for Manitoba’s Jennifer Jones but it could also have been a preview of Sunday’s final. It’s difficult to judge the significance of Manitoba’s 8-5 win over Team Canada in the marquee game of Wednesday after- noon’s draw at the Scotties Tournament of Hearts. The win kept Manitoba’s record unblemished at 7-0 and knocked Heather Nedohin from the ranks of the undefeated.
