Canada wins four medals on day three of the competitions, spanning from Sunday night into Monday morning.
Canada now has 6 medals overall, the second most medals at the Beijing Winter Olympics, behind the Russian Olympic Committee (ROC) in first.
Snowboarder Max Parrot wins Canada’s first gold after a three-year battle with cancer.
Parrot told CNN, “They were really hard times and, at times, I felt like I was a lion in a cage because I wasn’t able to do what I love the most, which is snowboarding.”
After conquering lymphoma the seven-time X Games champion and PyeongChang silver medalist conquered the slopes with an incredible run resulting in a 90.96 score.
“This is so incredibly special, especially with the run I did today,” said Parrot. “I’ve never done two triples in a row in a run, with that difficulty as well, and everything was so clean. I am extremely proud of myself and to take gold on that run means so much for me.”
Parrot shared the podium with the most decorated X Game medalist, Canadian snowboarder Mark McMorris, who received his third Olympic bronze medal.
Canada also made history with its first Olympic medal in Ski Jumping, in the mixed team event.
Olympians Alexandria Loutitt, Abigail Strate, Matthew Soukup and Mackenzie Boyd-Clowes took home the historic bronze medal, giving Canada at least one medal across 14 Winter Olympic sports.
Finally, speed-skater Kim Boutin won bronze in the women’s 500-metre speed-skating event.
Boutin was the first Canadian female short track skater to win three Olympic meddles at a single Olympics. Her bronze medal on Monday was her fourth Olympic medal.
