Carson also has a pretty good international representation this year. There are several Canadian teams (more than usual, or do a lot usually make it?), as well as a team from Brazil, Turkey, Australia, and China.

I'm pretty sure that it's less than usual, at least it is for me. In 2015 Curie, there were 5 Canadian teams, in Newton 2014 there were 6 Canadian teams and in 2013 Galileo, there were 10 Canadian teams.
However, the drop can be partially attributed to the +4 divisions I guess, but I think that there are still a lot of Canadian teams at Worlds this year.
