Béatrice Lamarche, Maddison Pearman and Valérie Maltais win the women's team pursuit at the ISU Four Continents event in Quebec City with a time of 3:06.877.

Laurent Dubreuil, also of Quebec City, took the men's 1,000 in 1:09.278 ahead of the South Korean tandem of Seong-Hyeon Park (1:09.838) and Tae-Yun Kim (1:10.252). Dubreuil also was victorious in the men's 500 on Saturday.

"In terms of results, it was a perfect weekend with three gold in three races. Today's race certainly was not what I had hoped for. There was a bit of an issue in the final lane change that caused me to lose some speed," Dubreuil said.

"I'm not sure how much it affected my race, but my final time was not what I was expecting. In the end, the most important thing was to win the race and I was able to do that, regardless of the circumstances."
