qualifies in men's badminton singles 

And  Japan would take one in the W1x
No Peru have the W1x and the LW2x qualified from the American qualifying regatta despite winning neither. I don't think there any gender related rules in the qualification system anymore.

You expect both boats to win their events?

Hi everyone! 
 
A bit of a family emergency is going on right now (my dad isn’t doing too well, he’s on his way to the hospital as I type this), which may explain my lack of inactivity on Totallympics and updating all of the various sporting events 
 
If anyone wants to post any of them that’ll be appreciated, and if not then I’ll post them when I’m fully back! 
 
Actually, it might even be within a few days. I’ve just thought about it, and when I’m not busy visiting him at the hospital, I might choose to watch/share results of some sports. Bit of a confusing response I know, but to explain my thought process, watching (along with playing, but irrelevant point) sports and sharing results on Totallympics are two of my favourite things to do. Trying to not worry too much when personal problems is hard for me, and it might be what I need to not freak out and have mental breakdowns every couple of minutes. But we’ll see.

I don’t know why you’re asking me, I’m not an expert on that “sport” 
 
I’ll say Ryan Decenzo and Cordano Russell in men’s street, Fay Ebert in women’s park and that’s it. My predictions may be a tad pessimistic but low expectations = no disappointment. 

Events
#1: May 16-19 in Shanghai, China.
#2: June 20-23 in Budapest, Hungary. 
 
Sports
Breaking (10 OQPs per gender)
Skateboarding (22 OQPs per gender in men’s/women’s street, and 22 OQPs per gender in men’s/women’s park)
BMX Freestyle (6 OQPs per gender)
Sport Climbing (12 OQPs per gender in men’s/women’s lead, and 7 OQPs per gender in men’s/women’s speed)

Points System
In sport climbing, breaking, and BMX freestyle there’ll be a maximum of 50 points up for grabs (unsure on the amount of points per rank though) in both Shanghai and Budapest, the athletes with the most amount of points qualify for Paris. In skateboarding, it’s a little bit different. They’re using a three-thirds system where 1/3 of each athletes Olympic Qualifier Series Ranking will count, along with 1/3 points in Shanghai, and 1/3 points in Budapest.
 
Right now, Fay Ebert is on 4076 points in women’s park, while in men’s street Cordano Russell is on 20,727 points, Ryan Decenzo is on 18,110 points, and Matt Berger is on 7,725 points.

Canadians stats in the NBA after the finish of  2023-24 regular season:
Canadians NBA stats 2023-24.xls
 
I have sorted out the players by average points and i also kept some important statistics as you see in the file above.
I have also colored green the cellls with the NBAers that participated in 2023 World Cup and yellow those cells of 2 other players (i explain the reasons in last paragraph)
 
Data taken from page: https://basketballbuzz.ca/nba/2023-24-canadian-nba-stats-tracker/
 
 
Note: According to Jordi's statements, on the sidelines of a Kings' game in Toronto somewhere in March, the 7 NBAers who played last year in the World Cup are sure for the final roster for Paris 2024 and the additions of Andrew Nembhard (Pacers) and Trey Lyles (Kings)  seem very likely.

Quite impressed that Canada is one of three nations which will send a full team.

Great that they’ll be streaming pretty much everything, but I hope they’ll have separate streams for track and all the various field events at Paris. Most the time on athletics streams they only show replays of field events, it’s rarely ever live. Canada has medal potential in both, and I wouldn’t want to miss anything live.
 
Also hope that Brittany MacLean will be at Paris for swimming.
 
Edit: Just messaged with Devin, the field events will have live streams as well.
