How many regional associations are there in Canada?

• A. Five
• B. Three
• C. Two
• D. Four: AUS (Atlantic University Sport), CW (Canada West), OUA (Ontario University Athletics), RSEQ (Réseau du sport étudiant du Québec)

Answer: (D)

Think of Canadian university sport organized regionally under U Sports. There are four regional associations: Atlantic University Sport for the Atlantic provinces, Canada West for the western provinces, Ontario University Athletics for Ontario, and Réseau du sport étudiant du Québec for Quebec. These four regions cover the country, each running its own leagues and championships and feeding into national events. So the total number of regional associations is four. The other numbers would miss one or more regions of the country.
