The Tokyo Olympics 2020 have officially kicked off and Canada has sent 370 athletes to compete in a wide variety of sports over the next two weeks.

On this page, you can find all the updated information on Canada’s medal wins, what happened today in the games for Canada and what you can expect to see tomorrow from Canadian athletes.

Olympic Day 2: Sunday, July 25

China leads the medal count at the Tokyo Games with 11, including six gold.

Canada captured two silver medals today — one courtesy of the women’s 4×100 freestyle relay team and the other in the three-metre synchronized springboard event.

Twenty-one-year-old relay team member Penny Oleksiak is now one medal away from setting a record for the most medals won by a Canadian athlete in the Summer Olympics.

She’ll be swimming in a women’s 200-metre freestyle heat at the Tokyo Aquatics Centre tomorrow.

On Monday, it'll also be Bailey Andison's time to shine, a local from Smiths Falls, when she competes in the Women’s 200m Individual Medley with Sydney Pickrem.

The 23-year-old was awarded the Brooke and Brittany Henderson Award for Youth for “her foundation of small-town values, and her ongoing perseverance, and dedication to reach her goals in her sport,” before leaving for Tokyo.
