Misconduct | The moment in Quebec women’s sport that most marked you

Last Sunday, we asked you what was the moment in Quebec women’s sport that had the most impact on you. Here are some of the responses we received.




There is a Quebec athlete who really left an impression on me, but who made certain blunders after her sporting career. I’m talking here about Myriam Bédard in biathlon at the Winter Olympic Games in Lillehammer. Let’s put aside her post-career and think of the little girl from Loretteville who collected two gold medals at these Games. What pride we had.

Clara Hughes and her winning the gold medal in the 5000 meters at the Turin Olympic Games. A metronome, each passage with the same time or almost without weakening and going to win gold in the last round. A great moment from a great athlete.

In my opinion, it’s Joannie Rochette and her bronze medal won at the Vancouver Olympics a few days after the tragic death of her mother. What a courageous and friendly woman, we wish her a great career in medicine.
