I'll be a Quebecker-Canadian. I'm from Quebec, and every time I go to a country, I say that. It's my roots, my origins, and it's the most important thing to me.

I can't live for more than four years outside of Canada. I'm Canadian, so ultimately that is my reference point.

The question about my Canadianness comes up a lot, and I'm never quite sure what to say about it. I've carved a life out for myself in Oregon, and it feels like home, not because it's the States but because that's where my friends are and where my son is.

For 20 years I've had the privilege of representing Canada around the globe... first on the bike and then on my blades. The experiences have shaped me into who I am today.

Berlin is like being abroad in Germany. It's German, but not provincial.

Few people know that I grew up in Germany and that my family still lives there.

I'm German in my mind, but from a Germany that doesn't exist any more.

Well, I've just gotten accustomed to just being in Canada for five and a half months a year.

Canada is the only country in the world that knows how to live without an identity.

I'm American by birth, but I consider myself Canadian.
