All in all, this was Jonathan's best World Cup of
the 2002-2003 circuit. In fact, in his words, ''This was the best weekend
of my career in the World Cup. This is what my confidence needed.'' He got an individual Bronze in the
1500m, anchored his team in the final for a relay Silver in the 5000m, and won two . . . TWO individual gold medals
- in both the 500m and the 3000m! And what a great place to do it all .
. . so near his hometown, on Canadian soil, with the home crowd cheering him on. EXCELLENT skating!!
