 got a quota in the men's singles instead of  in order to compete in the team relay. 's man and woman singles and 's men and women doubles have yet to fulfill athlete eligibility criteria.

Following this logic, wouldn't the Canadian men's singles quota be prioritized first? Why did China get it ahead of Canada?

Maybe injure and rejected relocation?

The women`s double from Canada have competed in four of the five qual. events this year. What's wrong with that? Yes, their men's double has only competed in one event, and that's where they have a problem.

They fell short on the rule that lugers must compete in two World Cups in January this year or once and do twenty training runs until 18th January if they were ranked low in the previous season (2024-25).

So Canada Men’s double has no chance, they competed only in Cortina 😁

They got probably extra dates, like AIN from what I see and they probably rejected the men's relocation quota in the singles, because they have one person with an injury and the other one is also taking part in the doubles, so he wouldn't be able to participate in the relay either.

But there has been no opportunity to reject/ These are the quotas at the end of qualification. The 'rejections' start now.

Yeah I was wondering the same thing, but both Canadians are crossed off the list. Whatever crossing off is meant to indicate.

Regarding  and  :

 

The FIL documents refer to Part C.2.2. of the Qualification rules regarding Athlete eligibility, it seems the Canadian women's double is missing the minimum of timed runs in Cortina (c.2.2.1), whereas the other are missing the requirement under C.2.2.2

Щодо   та   :

 

У документах FIL посилаються на частину C.2.2. правил кваліфікації щодо допуску спортсменів, схоже, що канадський жіночий дубль не відповідає мінімальній кількості забігів з часом у Кортіні (c.2.2.1), тоді як інші не відповідають вимогам C.2.2.2.
