[edit] Biography
Phaneuf is coached by Annie Barabé and Sophie Richard, and her programs are choreographed by David Wilson. In domestic Canadian competitions, she represents CPA Sorel.
Considered a threat to qualify for the 2006 Canadian Olympic team due to her two previous National medals, Phaneuf was forced to withdraw from the 2006 Canadian National Championships (the Olympic qualifying competition) due to an injury to her right knee. This was following a stress fracture to her right ankle that prevented her from competing in fall competitions. In 2007, she succeeded in earning a spot on the Canadian ladies' team by finishing fourth in that year's national championships.
In 2008, she continued her comeback with a third place showing in the national championships, and a 7th place at the Four Continents Competition.
