 Newfoundland (1930, 1934)

Canada competed at the 2018 Commonwealth Games in Gold Coast, Australia from 4 April – 15 April 2018.[1] It was Canada's 21st appearance at the Commonwealth Games, having competed at every Games since their inception in 1930.

On 6 October 2016, two time Commonwealth Games gold medalist Claire Carver-Dias was named as the chef de mission of the team.[2]

For the first time ever, there has been entry quotas set for all sports and therefore each country is restricted in the number of athletes it could enter.[3]

Canada's team consisted of 282 athletes competing in 17 sports. The team consisted of 137 male athletes and 146 female athletes.[4] This included a record 21 para-sport athletes.[5] Canada competed in all sports on the program except netball, which it failed to qualify in. Also, Canada did not qualify an athlete in the discipline of powerlifting.

On 28 February 2018, diver Meaghan Benfeito was named as the country's flag bearer at the opening ceremony.[6][7]

The goal of the Canadian team was at least 100 medals to be won across all sports.[8][9]

Athletics (track and field)[edit]

Canada's athletics team was given a quota of 45 athletes (36 able-bodied and 9 para athletes).[10] However, this was later increased by one by Commonwealth Games Canada. The official team was later announced on 10 January 2018 and consisted of 26 men and 20 women.[11][12][13] Potential medallist Andre De Grasse withdrew from the team in March 2018 and was replaced with Bismark Boateng.[14] Brendon Rodney did not compete in any events.
