Swimming Canada opened its open water swimming portal here.

Canada will have a lot to report on this summer as it hosts the 2010 World Open Water Swimming Championships and three other elite FINA World Cup and Grand Prix competitions in Quebec’s Lac St-Jean and Lac Memphremagog.

As the world’s elite come to Canada’s shores, Canada’s elite are getting ready.
