Here is some statistical tables i made in excel about Canada's medals from 1988 to 2020 Olympics. I didnt include past 1988 because 1980/1984 cant be representative because of boycotts, 1976 was at home and from 1972 to 1988 is a big period gap and games/sports had changed a lot.
Some notices:
- From 1988 to 2020, most medals have come from Swimming, Rowing and Athletics.
- Canoeing Sprint, Diving, Wrestling and Track Cycling at various times have given some satisfying number of medals also.
- The most succesfull sport for Canada by number of medals in the past was Rowing. And later at a lesser point Canoeing Sprint. Now these were replaced by Athletics and Swimming in the last 2 SOG editions, as you see in the small table (Canada's best sports by number of medals in each Olympics)
- Quite succesfull (although they have a few set of medals) by number of medals per events that Canada won were Artistic Swimming in the past and later Trampoline Gymnastics.
The first table is sorted by total of medals as you see
