Doing that actually gives us an extra women’s quota in another event that we wouldn’t otherwise have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intoronto 4,236 Posted September 4, 2021 #2147 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Both the world juniors in canoe sprint and track cycling are ongoing. Canada has a couple medals in canoeing, including a silver by Olympian Connor Fitzpatrick in the C1 1000, bodes well for the future. On the track, 3 medals, all by men, including a silver in the omnium and two golds in non-Olympic events. Meanwhile Canada finishes the Paralympcis with a .... 4th! place finish.

It appears Canada did better in the summer Olympics than the summer Paralympics for the first time ever this year. Danielle Dorris won a gold, though, so I'd call this a success.

Isabelle Harris in the 63kg will be one to watch in the coming years, she has a lot potential. Christa Deguchi gives me the impression that she is stopping competing for Canada. She is the only grade A of Judo Canada Team will not compete at the GrandSlam in Paris, otherwise Canadian Olympic team for Tokyo 2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
