Statement by Minister St-Onge on Canada's first medal at 2022 Paralympic Winter Games

Canadian Heritage

It's our first medal at the 2022 Paralympic Winter Games! I join every Canadian today and offer my congratulations to Mollie Jepsen who has won a gold medal in Para alpine skiing (women's standing downhill) last night.

This medal represents her fifth career Paralympic medal.

Courage, determination and inspiration-Mollie Jepsen truly embodies the Paralympic values and we couldn't be more proud!

I wish Team Canada continued success at the Games. The entire country is cheering you on.

Go Canada Go!
