Canada competed at the 2011 Commonwealth Youth Games held in the British Crown Dependency of Isle of Man from September 7 to 13, 2011. Their participation marked their third Commonwealth Youth Games appearance. Canada was represented by the Commonwealth Games Canada, the association which is responsible for Commonwealth Games and Commonwealth movement in Canada. The delegation of 70 people included 56 competitors and 14 coaches and supporting staff.[3]
Asianna Covington of Surrey, British Columbia, was given the honor to carry the national flag of Canada at the opening ceremony.[4] Caroline Morin-Houde of Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Quebec, was selected as the flag bearer in the closing ceremony.[2]
This was the first time that Canada failed to win any gold medal, and devolved to 15th position with six silvers and 16 overall medals, Canada ranking fifth in the medal table (with six golds and 26 overall medals) of the previous Commonwealth Youth Games. Sprinter Caroline Morin-Houde was the most successful competitor from Canadian side, winning three silvers. Artistic gymnast Curtis Graves was the most medal winning athlete in the Canadian delegation, winning two silvers and two bronze medals. With one silver and one bronze, Shaina Harrison and Kal Nemier were other competitors who won multiple medals at the Games.
