Tiago Cordeiro and Eva Maia Miranda discuss the Canadian para-athletes' performances at the Santiago 2023 Parapan American Games, the last major event before the Paris 2024 Paralympics. The Canadian team achieved significant success, with standout performances in para badminton and para cycling, contributing to a total of 52 medals. Co-Chefs de Mission Josh Van der Vies and Karolina Wisniewska praised the athletes' achievements and highlighted the importance of disability pride and inclusive sports. The episode also celebrated individual milestones, including Alexandre Hayward's four medals and quota spots earned for the Paris 2024 Games. Despite some setbacks, such as the women's wheelchair basketball team losing to the U.S., the games were a testament to Canada's determination and talent.
