Congrats to Trinidad and Tobago. Too bad for Suriname, but he needed Colombia to win the team quota to have any chance.

Also the Americans only get 2 Women's Keirin spots

So Canada will have a full women's team but no men in track cycling.

The document says men get 3 while the women get 2. There's a quota difference in the Omnium too (6 for men and 5 for women)

We will qualify in the keirin. The omnium doesn't look likely though

Omnium won't happen. I read a report in French that Remi Pelltier Roy is retiring because Canada won't qualify for Rio.

Can a nation start in the sprint if it has won a keirn quota?

It doesn't look like it based on the wording of the qualification document.
