December 13, 2010: Thank you for your support!
Hello everyone,
I would like to thank you for your support and encouragement this weekend. It is always special to dive at home; I’m more nervous because I don’t want to disappoint anyone.
I finished with two gold medals, including one in synchro with Reuben Ross. I’m super happy but at the same time, I know I can do better. My goal stays the same: I want to win the gold medal at the Olympic Games in London. It is the only one that I’m missing and I would really like to achieve this step. Each year, the difficulty of the dives increases and evolves. I have to increase my training a notch to make sure I have everything covered.
Thanks again to have come and encouraged us at the CAMO Invitation. Your encouragements made the difference for the Canadian team.

December 6, 2010: The competition season starts... In Montreal!
Hello everyone,
From December 9 to December 12, the Canadian diving team will be in action at the Claude-Robillard complex for the 2010 CAMO Invitation. It’s always a great experience to dive in front of fans, friends and family. Every time, it’s a surprise to see how proud the fans are.
It has been a while since I dove at home and I can’t wait. I’m in top shape and ready for competition. I only have one goal until 2012: be in the best possible physical condition for the Olympic Games. I am giving it my all. After the CAMO Invitation, international competitions will start!
I hope you’ll be able to come check out the competition at Claude-Robillard!
Thank you and talk soon,
Alex
November 26, 2010: Good news in the world of sports
Hello everyone,
It has been a while since I last wrote you! I’m focusing on training these days. There is a competition in Montreal coming soon and I want to be on top of my game. I’ll talk to you more about this competition at CAMO soon.
Now time for the good news! Sylvie Fréchette has been named 2012 assistant chef de mission for the Canadian Olympic team. It’ll be a new and exciting challenge for Sylvie; she is always looking for great experiences. I’m certain that her Olympic experience and her philosophy will be beneficial to us. Sylvie is a winner and I have a lot of admiration for her. Congrats Sylvie and looking forward to having you with us in London!

November 4, 2010: Did you save the date of November 7 in your agenda?
Hello everyone,
Did you save the date of November 7 in your agenda? Do it fast, on Sunday November 7 will be the first edition of the Festifan. It’s an event to raise money in collaboration with the Montreal Canadiens Children’s Foundation and the Ronald McDonald Houses Charity of Quebec. It’s great; you’ll meet your favourite Canadiens players and will also help children and their family.
Tickets are sold on the website of the Foundation website or at McDonald’s Restaurants in the Montreal area. I encourage you to all to take part in it.
Thank you!
Alex
