The jersey design represents more than style; it embodies resilience, pride, and a sense of belonging developed over time and challenge.

“Every stitch reflects our resilience, pride, and belonging, forged through time and pressure. Introducing the 2026 Team Canada jersey.”

These jerseys aim to unite Canadian athletes and fans as they strive for Olympic success in Italy.
