Join us for a conversation with one of Canada's greatest athletes. Over the course of his remarkable career, Brad Gushue set a new standard of curling excellence. Born in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, Gushue quickly rose through the sports ranks; his incredible promise becoming evident when he won the 2001 World Junior Curling Championship and reaching a defining moment in the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, Italy, when he led Team Canada to a gold medal. For over a quarter of a century, Brad Gushue has competed at the highest level, skipping his team to a record-setting six Briers and representing Canada at numerous international tournaments.

This event is presented in partnership with the Ottawa Public Library and Library and Archives Canada.The event explores the story behind what it takes to become a champion and should be an interesting evening for anyone who enjoys sport, competition, and great stories.
