I wonder why they didn’t have a distinction this year between “Top Canadian” men/women and overall men/women…
Aaron wiped the floor with me last year, but the only reason I was able to compete in NY was because of that distinction.

Why should someone get a free ride to the finals just because of GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION?!?! Yeah, I’m a bitter American!
