Two Canadians participated, although not as a national team (These were not introduced until later Olympics).

Canada's Olympians were George Orton and Ronald J. MacDonald.

Orton was the first Canadian to win a medal, finishing first in the 2500-metre steeplechase.

Orton, who was at school at the University of Pennsylvania, had accompanied a United States delegation to the games.

The following competitors won multiple medals at the 1900 Olympic Games.
