Our core mission is to leverage the unique and profound impact of Paralympic sport as a tool for societal change. Guided by the vision of creating a more inclusive world, we work tirelessly to prepare our athletes for excellence in competition and to foster communities where inclusivity is not just encouraged—it’s celebrated.

At the heart of our efforts are the remarkable stories and achievements of high-performance athletes with disabilities. By showcasing their journeys and triumphs, the CPC aims not only to encourage Canadians from all walks of life to embrace inclusivity but also to engage actively in the transformative world of sport.
