US EditionCurlers Peterman, Gallant first athletes named to Canada's 2026 Olympic team
- Jocelyn Peterman and Brett Gallant, a husband-and-wife curling team from Chestermere, Alberta, were named to represent Canada in mixed doubles at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy.
- They secured their provisional nomination to represent Canada at the Olympics by triumphing at the Canadian Mixed Doubles Curling Trials in early 2025, and later clinched the country's Olympic berth with a sixth-place result at the World Mixed Doubles Championship held in Fredericton.
- Peterman, 31, previously competed in women's curling at the 2022 Beijing Olympics, while Gallant won bronze in 2018 as part of Brad Gushue’s rink, making them experienced Olympians returning as teammates.
- Peterman expressed that competing in the Olympics once is incredible, but having the chance to do so again—and alongside her husband as a teammate—is an exceptional honor. She added that they are eagerly looking forward to participating in the Games in Italy next year.
- Their selection and Canada’s qualification suggest strong national strength in mixed doubles, with seven countries qualifying for the Olympic tournament held February 4-10 in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy.
