Finley Knox also broke the Canadian record in the men's 50m breaststroke with a time of 26.30. However, Knox did not reach the semi-finals.
On the women's side, Summer McIntosh and Mary-Sophie Harvey reached the final of the women's 400m IM, while Sophie Angus reached the semi-finals of the women's 50m breaststroke.
