    I don't think they know what they are talking about.
     
    In half-pipe and slopestyle/big air the quotas they rejected show as, well, rejected. They specifically accepted a re-allocation quota in PGS while other countries rejected them. Either they are incompetent or different factions of the organization are at war with each other...

    That must be Canada-specific then, since everywhere else nothing happens until a country actively refuses or accepts a reallocated spot...

    I think we've rejected more quotas than the Netherlands this cycle . Does anyone know if we'll end up returning them or if they'll just become wasted quotas?

    Latvian team confirmed. 57 athletes. I like how everyone gets a page (Bendika gets two!), while hockey players get just their names.

    Bendika is going in both biathlon and XC skiing, so she had a hissy fit over nothing.

    Yes, apparently we have received a reallocation for the 1500 m.  Phew. It would have been pretty lame to debut in the sport and then having everything wrapped up after heats of the shortest distance.
     
    No idea who declined.

    So since there no action since this morning, I contacted our federation.
     
    Response: Thank you for your information. Sure we will will use this quota, already working for the acceptance process.

    currently has 214 athletes qualified for Beijing. 
     
    Alpine - 12*
    Biathlon - 8
    Bobsleigh - 18
    Cross-Country 9
    Curling - 12
    Figure skating - 13
    Freestyle skiing -32
    Hockey - 48
    Luge - 6
    Short track - 10
    Skeleton - 3
    Ski jumping - 4
    Snowboarding - 23*
    Speed skating - 16
     
    Canada stands to gain three reallocation in snowboarding atm, one in the women's halfpipe, and one each in the PGS events (which would put Canada at the maximum in the sport), which would increase the team to 217 athletes. Canada is assured of another women's quota in alpine (Netherlands and Liechtenstein will reject), so that brings it too 218. If another thee ahead decline, Canada would get a further two women. Not sure if all we be accepted. 
     
    So Canada's final team size should be anywhere from 214-220, which ofc is less than the 224 in PyeongChang.

    What is the Dutch NOC doing this time, sending 10 people across several sports with no chance of medals? Is that because they've already been forced to book a chartered flight and they need to fill the seats?
