Josee came on the skating scene with a vengance. Taking the Candian National title, she was deemed as the future in Canadian ladies figure skating. That, however, wasn't to be. After disapointing Olympic perforances in 1992 she was determined to do better at 1994. Many remember that fateful night in Lillihammer, with Nancy Kerrigan, Oksana Baiul, and Tonya Harding, but few remember the woman who has to skate earlier that she planned after the great skate lace incident. That performance completely wiped her out of the competition and some thought out of the skating world itself.
Josee had other plans, though. Using her powerful jumping power and beautiful spins, she beat four world champions in a professional competition. Still going strong, Josee has yet again proved herself.
