Weightlifter Christine Girard has captured bronze in the women's 63-kilogram class.

It's Canada's third bronze of the day and fourth of the Games.

Divers Roseline Filion of Laval, Que., and Meaghan Benfeito of Montreal kicked things off today with a third-place finish in the 10-metre synchro event.

Antoine Valois-Fortier won a bronze in men's judo less than 30 minutes later.

Girard, who grew up in Rouyn-Noranda, Que., and lives in White Rock, B.C., completed the hat trick an hour later.
