Kaetlyn Osmond took a big step Friday in her quest to unseat defending Canadian figure skating champion Alaine Chartrand, scoring 81.01 points to sit first after the women's short program in Ottawa.
The 21-year-old native of Marystown, N.L., is vying for her third national title coming off last month's fourth-place finish at the ISU Grand Prix in Marseille, France.
Gabrielle Daleman of Newmarket, Ont., is second after collecting 75.04 points at TD Place Arena, followed by Prescott, Ont., native Chartrand, who earned 67.41 points.
Daleman prevailed at the 2015 Canadian championship after Osmond posted back-to-back victories in 2013 and 2014.
Short programs in ice dance, men's (6:10 p.m. ET) and pairs were to follow the women's event.
