Shawn Sawyer is the first New Brunswicker to win such an honour in this competition.</p>\n<p>On behalf of all the people of Madawaska\u2014Restigouche, I congratulate Shawn on this well-earned title and wish him every success in South Korea, where the ISU Four Continents Championship will be held shortly.</p>",
