    didn't participate though.

    I forgot Kuwait already got a quota. I was thinking men's sabre for them.
     
    There's no participation requirements for tripartite athletes in fencing. In other sports, I've seen nations which did not participate at all get tripartite quotas.

    But yeah, if I had full control (and an extra 1000-1500 athlete quotas) fencing would be bumped up to 12 teams and individuals would have 48 fencers.

    Yeah, Canada's team chances right now pretty much rely on the United States to rank in the top 4 and then make sure we finish in the top 16.
     
    The exception of course is women's team foil, but that will likely regress back to the mean once this generation retires.

    won a quota in men's -97kg, we are up to 11 nations with a quota. will have a chance in the -125kg, but Egypt will be the heavy favourite.

    qualified in -65kg, this is now the best performance by Oceania nations ever since they combined the African and Oceania qualifier.

    I think Rckaela is the better wrestler and with no Nigerian in this event it was seen as the best option to maximize their chances. Lucky for Mia, she also avoided Nigeria and now both get to compete at the Olympics

    Unsurprisingly, North Africa dominates Greco-Roman.
     
    Freestyle should be a little more diverse.

    Yeah, for as heartbreaking as 2012 was, it did put the women's national team on the map.

    Women's volleyball is another bad example. Even with continental spots the women have not qualified unless Canada or the United States were host. Funny, enough 2024 is our best chance in a long time and if we qualify it won't be because of a continental spot.
     
    After a more in-depth search, I believe only football and shooting would be missed. 26/32 sports is still more than most nations.

    Even if Canada was in Europe, we'd still be in most sports. Like easily 20+, likely around 25. Off the top of my head, we'd probably fail to qualify in shooting and football. Among disciplines we'd probably miss open water swimming and canoe slalom. Everything else we'd have a representative. Yes, Canada benefits from not being in Europe, but we are still good at qualifying.

    The tripartite quota on the women's side is quite competitive. Currently in the top 400 we have:
     
     Lina Gjorcheska (239)
     Danka Kovinic (241)
     Kathinka von Deichmann (277)
     Francesca Curmi (311)
     Sada Nahimana (336)
     Victoria Jimenez (364)
     
    While I would love Burundi to get the quota and help boost tennis in Africa, Liechtenstein might force the tripartite committee's hand. They aren't eligible to send a swimmer and they don't compete in athletics (when was the last time they competed at a World Championships?) so without a tripartite quota they won't compete at the Olympics.
     
    Outside of tennis their most likely tripartite quota would be in mountain biking. Also Liechtenstein has a higher ranking than Burundi so that may also play into their hand.
