Ottawa – The Government of Canada and the Government of British Columbia are each providing $15 million to support Invictus Games 2025. Federal funding for the Games is being provided by Veterans Affairs Canada through a contribution agreement with the Vancouver-Whistler Games Corporation (Invictus Games 2025), the not-for-profit entity that was incorporated to manage the planning and operations of the Games.
Veterans Affairs Canada is providing an additional $1 million in funding to Soldier On to support the participation of Canadian Veterans at the Games.
The Soldier On program manages Team Canada’s participation in the Invictus Games and Warrior Games.
Team Canada has competed at every Invictus Games since the inaugural Games in 2014, most recently with a team of 31 competitors at the Invictus Games 2023 in Düsseldorf. In 2025, Team Canada is proudly represented by 56 Veterans and still-serving CAF members.
Soldier On is a program of the Canadian Armed Forces Transition Group (CAFTG) which contributes to the recovery of ill and injured CAF members and Veterans by providing opportunities and resources to engage in sport, recreational, and creative activities.
The Invictus Games 2025 will take place 8-16 February 2025 in Vancouver and Whistler, British Columbia. More than 500 Veterans and still-serving military personnel from more than 20 nations, including more than 50 members from Team Canada will compete in nine winter and indoor adaptive sports.
