May 23, 2025 – The Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES) stands firmly with the global anti-doping community to condemn the Enhanced Games, and to highlight the value of sport that is safe, inclusive, fair, clean, and accessible.
The Enhanced Games run contrary to sport at its best by encouraging athletes to use performance-enhancing drugs and exploiting them for entertainment, rather than ensuring athletes’ health and wellness, and upholding the principles of clean sport that are at the heart of sport with integrity.
An event that not only permits but facilitates the use of drugs that are prohibited and experimental, and that may have long-term effects on both their mental and physical well-being, is dangerous and reckless, not cutting edge.
The CCES strongly condemns the Enhanced Games and discourages any athlete from participating. We hope that Canadian athletes will hold true to their values and will continue to support clean sport and everything it stands for.
