How can an organization become recognized by Sport Canada as a National Sport Organization?
A. Sport Canada pursues its mission through a combination of national sport policies and funding programs directed primarily to eligible National Sport Organizations (NSOs). Consequently, there is no recognition process or a status of a “recognized NSO.” Rather, there is a process to determine what organizations may be eligible for federal funding. Eligibility is limited to NSOs and MSOs that have met the full requirements of the Sport Funding and Accountability Framework (SFAF).
