2018-19 ANNUAL REVIEW OWN THE PODIUM To be a world leader in high performance sport at the Olympic and Paralympic Games
MESSAGE FROM CHAIR AND CEO
Following Canada’s best ever winter Olympic and Paralympic Games in PyeongChang in 2018,
Own the Podium (OTP) and its partners went to work to lay out plans for the next quadrennial
leading to the 2022 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games in Beijing. A major post-games de-
brief was attended in early May by all winter national sport organizations to examine lessons
learned over the quadrennial as well as “at Games”. Each sport looked at the positives, negatives
and suggested changes needed to continue our quest as a leading winter sport nation. The host
nation China will pull out all the stops in 2022 to climb the medal table along with traditional
rivals Norway, Germany and the USA.
On the summer side, at the mid quad point, Canada’s athletes were tracking well and preparing
for important world championships in 2019.
The Coaching Enhancement Program, a collaborative initiative involving the Canadian Olympic
Committee (COC), Canadian Paralympic Committee (CPC), Coaching Association of Canada (CAC),
Sport Canada and OTP, continues to strengthen our high performance coaches by providing
critical assessments and tailored professional development opportunities to address gaps and Todd Nicholson Anne Merklinger
develop the expertise of our coaches to be “world class”. Board Chair CEO
It has been my privilege as Chair of Own the Podium and a former Paralympic Sledge Hockey
player, to work alongside a great Board of Directors including new Board members Araba Chintoh,
Robert Hatch, John Mills, Sue Paish and Tara Whitten.
Finally, over the course of 2018-19, OTP was actively engaged in several consultations, strategy
sessions, workshops and a National Summit addressing safe sport issues. OTP stands with all
partners in sport that pledge to make sure that all Canadians have the right to participate in sport
in an environment that is safe, welcoming, inclusive, ethical and respectful.

02 SETTING EXCEPTIONAL FOUNDATIONS FOR 2022
For most National Sport Organizations, year one of the 2022 quadrennial was about implementing the lessons learned from the previous quadrennial and
optimizing program and staffing structures. The Winter OTP program supported this priority by prioritizing several multi-sport initiatives. These initiatives
included delivering a successful professional development program for High Performance Directors, launching a collaborative network for the Ski technicians
to share best practices across Canadian sports supporting the roll-out of World Class return to performance protocols across sports.
03 PODIUM POOL AT YEAR 1: 2019 versus 2015
The first year of the 2022 quadrennial saw many of the 2018 champions taking a year to recover and rejuvenate in order to continue to perform at the highest
levels at the next Games. As a result, there were many new faces on the World Cup podiums – a strong sign of the transition of athletes from the Next
Generation programing to World and Olympic podiums.
