The question is:
Is there enough interest to send Canadian Youth Olympic team together with our National and Women's teams?

It is quite late, but definitely seems interesting. I don't know if many young players would be interested at this time of the year, or if the CFC could help paying for some of the expenses though.

It would be great to have a team at every Youth Olympiads, since it is a wonderful opportunities for youngsters.
