According to the ISU Master Speed Skating Group (IMSSG) latest news, the reserved quota of 91 for Canadian competitors has already been reached! This is a fantastic turnout and should provide a great level of competition. The quota of 70 skaters for the Netherlands has also been reached. As for the other countries, as of today, here are the details (registration and quota): Germany 15 entries out of 41, Norway 50 entries out of 60, U.S.A. 11 entries out of 51 and other countries 33 entries out of 41.

Steve -

Many Canadian skaters I've talked to, including my wife and I received confirmation by e-mail, fax or snail-mail shortly after registration.

I suggest you e-mail the race organizer - Gregg Planert at gplanert@ucalgary.ca or call him at 403-210-9481.

You should do this ASAP as unused USA quota will be given away after December 10, 2006 to skaters already on the waiting list.

Good luck - hope to see you there
