ST. CATHARINES, Ontario – With 11 medals, Julie Brousseau matches the record for the most medals won at a single Canada Games that was set by Ontario swimmer Hanna Henderson at the 2017 Canada Summer Games.

A total of 317 swimmers, Para swimmers and special Olympians are competing at this six-day competition which ends on Friday with open water races at the Welland International Flatwater Centre.
SwimSwam Note:
The final night of competition also saw 14-year-old Laon Kim of British Columbia near the boys’ 13-14 Canadian National Record in the 50 freestyle, as Kim won the event in a blistering time of 24.04.
That swim was just .01 shy of his lifetime best, set at the Canadian Championships in late July, and .07 back of the NAG record of 23.97 set by Scarborough Swim Club’s Kurtis Miller way back in 2000.
Kim represents the Hyack Swim Club in club swimming.
