It’s on the Beijing 2022 entries. Sébastien Beaulieu, Kaylie Buck, Jennifer Hawkrigg and Jules Lefebvre have all been added to the team.

 

Absolutely no word about this from Snowboard Canada xD

How do you check this on Beijing 2022 website? I was able to check how many entries per sport. But when I go to the athlete section, always access denied.....

OMG the spin. Team Canada has “received” four additional quotas. Sure.

Damn, they must have consulted Olivia Pope for this.

Clearly those four quotas "accidentally" ended up in the email spam folder. Good thing they found them.

Finally a more honest account by Snowboard Canada.

Guess there was some room on the Canada jet too. At least this has once again showed us, that when it comes to the Winter Olympics, nations can reject, accept and rearrange quotas whenever they want, procedures and deadlines be damned.

Ya, the period from three to one week before the Winter Olympics is always a bit of a clown show where at least half a dozen qualification rules are broken by IFs…
