Canoe slalom doesn't have much depth in Pan America. It was the last discipline to be added to the Pan American Games (in 2015). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really, we saw Bolivia and Peru newly attend while Colombia did not. The only reason it's on the Pan Am program is because of its Olympic status.

Keeping it on the program, and encouraging participation are some of the best ways to do that. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.
