Three more bronze medals for Canada. Divers Roseline Filion of Laval, Que., and Meaghan Benfeito of Montreal kicked things off today with a third-place finish in the 10-metre synchro event. Antoine Valois-Fortier won a bronze in men’s judo less than 30 minutes later. Weightlifter Christine Girard has captured bronze in the women’s 63-kilogram class.
I mentioned before that I believe the only sports environment in which the results can be changed long after the fact would the International Olympics.

Canadian weightlifter Christine Girard was originally given the bronze medal in the women’s 63-kilogram class in the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. But she has just been upgraded to a gold medal after Maiya Maneza of Kazakhstan and Svetlana Tsarukaeva of Russia — were stripped of their gold and silver medals, respectively, after a 2016 retest of samples showed they had cheated by taking steroids.
祝加拿大加式足球聯賽不列颠哥伦比亚卑詩雄獅隊今年贏格雷杯冠軍。此外祝溫哥華加人隊贏總統獎座·卡雲斯·甘保杯·史丹利盃。還每年祝溫哥華白頭浪隊贏美國足球大联盟杯。不要忘記每年祝溫哥華巨人贏西部冰球聯盟冠軍。
改建後的卑詩體育館於二十十一年九月三十日重新對外開放,首場體育活動為同日舉行的加拿大足球聯賽賽事,由主場的卑詩雄獅隊以三十三比二十四擊敗愛民頓愛斯基摩人隊。
祝你龍年行大運。
恭喜西雅图海鹰直到第四十八屆超級盃最終四十三比八大勝曾拿下兩次超級盃冠軍的丹佛野馬拿下隊史第一個超級盃冠軍。

As mentioned before, only in the Olympic Games can the event results be overturned long after the fact.

As such, the Canadian men's 4x100-metre relay team from the 2020 Tokyo Olympics got an upgrade from bronze to silver at a reallocation ceremony after the original silver medalists, the British team was disqualified due to a doping violation by team member.

Yet another example in which the results have been changed long after the event, Russia's Kamila Valieva was disqualified from the 2022 Olympics. And as such in the Team Figure Skating event, the original Russia team wo placed first will be disqualified as well.

Original silver medalists USA will be upgraded to gold, Japan will upgrade their bronze to silver, and fourth place finishers Canada will get the bronze.

Update:
Unfortunately Canada may still finish fourth because after Kamila Valieva's points are taken away, team ROC will still finish in third place for the bronze medal. Skate Canada is appealing.
