The head coach of the Canadian para-nordic ski team has some concerns about competing against Russian athletes at a World Cup event this month in Canmore. The first of three World Cup events will be held Dec. 9 to 17 at the Canmore Nordic Centre. They will serve as qualifiers for the 2018 Paralympic Games in PyeongChang, South Korea. About 60 Russian athletes are set to compete at the Canmore event. The second World Cup event goes Jan. 20-28, 2018 in Germany and the third Feb. 2-10, 2018 in Finland.
