With over 700 Canadian swimmers expected to compete next week, the Trials will be opening the doors to foreign swimmers.  Over 10 countries will be sending athletes with hopes to qualify a time fast enough to represent their respective event in London this summer.  With the focus being on Canadian swimmers, international swimmers will not be allowed to race in the A finals.  For Canadians, the trials in Montreal are the sole chance for earning a spot to represent Canada in the pool this summer.
