As previously reported by my good buddy @intoronto, the Canadian Table Tennis Olympic Trials (had no clue we even had an event for selection before yesterday) have just concluded with Jeremy Hazin joining pre-selected  Eugene Wang and Edward Ly in the team event.

Just spoke to Rafa, and got some confirmation that our women’s team pursuit squad have mathematically qualified for Paris already as they can’t be caught in the Olympic Rankings.

Ty Ikeda secures a quota in men’s 50m rifle 3 positions with a silver medal at the Pan American Rifle & Pistol Championships! He was 1.8 points behind Argentina heading into the 43/45th shot, but complete disaster by Zoccali Albizu on his last (6.0) combined with a 8.4 was more than enough to get it done! 
 

At the beginning of the qualification period I was expecting/hoping for at least one quota in shooting, but now we have 3!!

I know Fencing, Judo and Diving national teams are among others based here.
