What Jake said.  Moreover and sadly, there isn’t a nationwide organization in Canada equivalent to RUSA.  Each region appears to operate as an independent entity.  One consequence is that there is no comprehensive website showing individual results for brevets ridden in Canada. I’ve enjoyed many brevets in Canada, but they are “dark matter” in my randonneuring records.

 

Tailwinds,

Eric

·        Canadian brevets and RUSA results - 2 Updates

Andrew LaMarche <spaceco...@gmail.com>: Jul 24 12:07PM -0700

Hey all,
 
Given how close I am to Montreal, I've been planning to do some ACP
sanctioned brevets with the Club Velo Randonneurs du Quebec. I was curious
if anyone knew if these could be used against RUSA awards or if they would
show up in my RUSA profile at all? I figure the answer is probably not, but
thought I'd ask regardless.
 
Thanks,
Andrew

It's a good question but sadly the answer is no. I've been told there was some discussion in the early days of RUSA of allowing Canadian groups to list their events in the RUSA calendar but that didn't happen for various reasons. It used to be possible for RUSA to sanction events and perms that crossed the border but due to insurance that no longer is possible.
 
PBP is the only non-US event that appears in results.
 
Jake
