Canoeing competitions at the 2015 Pan American Games surrounding Toronto are held in two main disciplines: the sprint, from 11 to 14 July and the slalom, from 18 to 19 July.[1] The slalom competition will be held at the Minden Wild Water Preserve in Minden Hills.[2][3] The sprint events were staged at the Welland Pan Am Flatwater Centre in Welland.[4][5]
At the Pan American Sports Organization's 2013 general assembly in Jamaica, canoe slalom competitions were added to the program. This was the first time slalom has been staged at the Pan American Games. Furthermore women also competed in canoe races for the first time ever in both disciplines.[6]
The winners of the five canoe slalom competitions (besides the C-1 women event, which is not an Olympic event) qualify for the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. If Brazil, the host nation of the Olympics, wins any events, the runner up qualifies instead.[7]
