Team Biovail, the Canadian women's cycling team sponsored by Biovail Corporation, will continue to ride in support of the Canadian Diabetes Association (CDA) in 2006 by attending events on their behalf and partnering with the CDA on various health and wellness initiatives. The following riders are on the 2006 roster managed by Scott Gerrie: Anne Samplonius, Joëlle Numainville, Natasha Elliott and Stéphanie Bourbeau are newcomers to the squad, while Anna Garnett, Amanda Shaw, Jennifer Magur and Jennifer Stephenson are returning riders.

Stephanie Bourbeau joined the team halfway though the 2005 season and was first in GC at Green Mountain Stage Race, as well as being the Quebec ITT Champion. Natasha Elliott, who comes from a running background and attended Coastal Carolina University on a running scholarship, joined the team in the later half of 2005.
