TORONTO - Canadian figure skater Jeffrey Buttle is going out on top.
The 26-year-old native of Smooth Rock Falls, Ont., has announced his retirement from competitive figure skating.
He says he's satisfied with everything he's accomplished in his career.
Buttle won gold earlier this year at the world figure skating championship in Sweden.
He was the first Canadian to win the men's world title since Elvis Stojko did so in 1997.
Buttle also won bronze at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, Italy.
