Career
World Cup Career
During the 2021–22 ISU Speed Skating World Cup stop in Calgary, Dubreuil broke the Canadian record in the 500 metres event by racing to a time of 33.778.[4] Dubreuil won a medal in the first eight World Cup races.[5]
Winter Olympics
2018
Dubreuil qualified to compete for Canada at the 2018 Winter Olympics.[6][7][8]
2022
Dubreuil qualified to compete for Canada at the 2022 Winter Olympics.[9][10][11]
He competed in the 500m event and finished up fourth. During his race, he was charged with a false start. This was questioned by Bart Veldkamp, who called it "very suspicious".[12] However Dubreuil said the false start was not an excuse for him not winning a race, and saying "it's something that's totally possible to overcome. It's just a minor inconvenience. That was not the difference."[13]
In the 1000m race, he finished second, earning the silver medal, his first Olympic podium finish.[3]
