Canada's 2024 Olympics Qualification Discussion


Recommended Posts

@Topicmaster1010 Thought it would just be easier to comment on your predictions

 

Archery: This depends on if Kristine Esebua can compete for Canada. Her omission from the Pan Am Games implies she is not a citizen yet. This article also implies that. I think she will be able to in the end, and should be a favourite for one of the quota spots. +1

 

Athletics: Gabriela Debues-Stafford should be back for this season (and qualify, hopefully injury is fully recovered). AFAIK Liz Gleadle is still aiming for 2024. So +2 here.

 

Judo: Julien Frascadore should qualify through the rankings, he burst onto the scene last year. Can see him moving up in the rankings +1 

 

 

Wrestling: I would add Amar Dhesi in the continental quotas. +1

Natasha Wodak will attempt to breach the women’s marathon OQS at the Houston Marathon tomorrow, likely her final attempt.

BEST. NEWS. EVER. Assuming she qualifies as expected, she could even be a dark horse for a medal. 

At least she’s give a chance now

She is a promising young athlete, who has lots of room for improvement, but I think Paris 2024 might be too soon for her. Her PB of 59.11m was at a really (really) windy meet in Oklahoma, and since then has only got within two meters at most of the mark (in nine meets)

Very interesting that she seems to have gotten citizenship through a court ruling unrelated to her and not because the federal government made a special exception for her.

 

Either way, very happy she gets to compete for Canada. I obviously have a special soft spot for :CAN:USA athletes, especially when they compete for Canada.

    • Also it being illegal in France means the IOC will have to test everyone pre arriving at 2030 and can’t wait till they arrive at the Games to do so. I’m sure at 2028 for some sports testing will happen on site if it’s not a rule of its governing body for non Olympic events. So far only a few sports like Athletics and Boxing have that rule - I suspect others will adopt it but others might take time. 
    • https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/olympics/articles/cpwj78lxypro ‘In France - one of a number of countries where genetic testing is illegal without a medical prescription due to privacy laws - the government has condemned the decision as "a step backwards". "It defines the female sex without taking into account the biological specificities of intersex individuals, whose sexual characteristics present natural variations, leading to a reductive and potentially stigmatising approach," ⁠claimed French Sports Minister Marina Ferrari.”   ‘A group of legal experts in human rights and sports have since expressed, external"urgent concern" about what they called "the regressive move toward genetic testing as a precondition of participation in women's sport" which they say "violate domestic and international laws that protect human rights and regulate the use of genetic testing and genetic information".  The group has called on athletes "to challenge the national or regional implementation of mandatory genetic sex testing, demanded by the IOC or international federations, before domestic courts, by invoking national or regional laws protecting human rights, prohibiting anti-discrimination, and regulating the use of genetic testing and genetic data".’   Domestic laws are more challenging for the IOC to deal with than CAS. Things could get complicated for a bit. 
    • Except NOC’s and governing bodies have to still follow local laws. Particularly for Under 18’s there could certainly be domestic legal issues regarding associations paying for travel to other counties to circumvent a domestic ban. Child protection services don’t always act reasonable to attempts to break a domestic law.
