Steven Dubois crowned Olympic champion, women’s short track relay wins bronze

It was a fruitful day for Canada’s short track speed skating team on Wednesday at Milano Cortina 2026.

Steven Dubois was crowned Olympic champion in the men’s 500 metres and just half an hour earlier, Courtney Sarault, Kim Boutin, Florence Brunelle and Danaé Blais captured the bronze medal in the women’s 3000-metre relay.

With the Olympic title, the 28-year-old Dubois achieved one of the few remaining goals he had yet to check off his list: becoming an Olympic champion in an individual event.
