Won over a pretty tame field I would guess, still a good effort.

I watched almost all of his matches this weekend.
He played some young guys in the first few rounds, never conceding more than four or five points in a game.
He played Shawn Delierre, ranked somewhere in the 40-50 range in the semis and won to the tune of 11-6 11-1 11-1
The final against Razik was a great match.
Power was hitting good length but still attacking in the backhand front corner as usual.
He went up 2-0, lost the third but took the 4th convincingly. Amazing that he has been retired for two years and is still of top-20 calibre.

I don't believe this was an "open".

NO. It is not "open". It is for Canadian citizen or Permanent Resident (at least one year in Canada).

So just the "open" divisions are for canadians or canadian residents only? What about the age brackets?

That would explain the presence of Satinder Bajwa but does Jaimie Crombie live in Canada?

im pretty sure crombie has dual citizenship, making him eligible for both US and Canadians nationals
according to squashinfo.com he lives in cincinatti
he's amazing, 42 years old and still consistently making the quarters at this event
