Tristan Jankovics broke Brian Johns’ Canadian record in the men’s 400-metre IM. The record – set in 2003 – had been the longest active Canadian record on the books. Jankovics’s new national mark of four minutes, 2.01 seconds was third-fastest in qualifying on Saturday.

Jankovics swims in the final at 12:42 p.m. ET.

Finlay Knox also broke the Canadian record in the men’s 50m breaststroke with a time of 26.30. However, Knox did not advance to the semifinals.

On the women’s side, McIntosh and Harvey advanced to the women’s 400m IM final while Sophie Angus advanced to the semifinals of the women’s 50m breaststroke.

Canada also qualified a team for the final of the mixed 4x100m medley relay thanks to the performance of Angus, Knox, Blake Tierney, and Penny Oleksiak.

That relay final will get underway at 1:14 p.m. ET.
