WHO THEY ARE

The Canadian Olympic Committee is the national organization responsible for Canada’s participation in the Olympic Games and the broader Olympic movement. It supports athletes, national sport organizations, and high-performance programs.

MISSION / FOCUS

To lead Canada’s participation in the Olympic Movement and support athletes in achieving excellence on the world stage. Its focus is on high-performance success, athlete support systems, and promoting Olympic values such as excellence, respect, and inclusion across Canadian sport.

THEIR WORK WITH ICSN

The COC aligns with ICSN at a values and governance level. Its Safe Sport policies, gender equity commitments, and Indigenous inclusion strategies reflect the same high-level principles ICSN advocates for across sport systems. The difference is scale and performance focus, but the inclusion framework is broadly aligned.
