Hello Vera.
Just in case the Lawrence W. you are referring to in your post is me. I would like to clarify.
The issue of whether I am eligible to shoot for the Canadian team was resolved by the WBC in 2008. The WBC determined that I am a Canadian citizen with a Canadian passport that also happens to own property in Canada, therefore as per the WBC rules, I am a Canadian and eligible to shoot for the Canadian team. Nothing has changed with my status since 2008, therefore I am still eligible to represent Canada on the Canadian team.
The reason that I could not make it to France in 2009 was that my finances imploded and I couldn't even afford to attend local matches. It has been a couple of very tough years, but fortunately in the past year my financial situation has come roaring back and is now the strongest that it has ever been. For the past year, I have been shooting every match that I could attend and I finally have an LV that shoots as well as my HV.
I am interested in earning my way onto a 2015 Canadian team and proudly representing my country (Canada) and my Canadian flag.
Lawrence
