Unsourced WP:DICDEF, flagged for both neutrality and sourcing issues since 2013 without any actual improvement since, of a variant term for the exact same thing we're already covering in much more depth in canoe. It's true that there are some dialects of English in which "canoe" is used to mean "kayak", so the term "Canadian canoe" is used to distinguish this form of canoe from the other usage, but that's not the way we're using "canoe" as a page title here: we're not using it as a disambiguation page to differentiate "Canadian canoes" from kayaks, but as the main article about "Canadian canoes" — so under those circumstances, the "Canadian canoe" title doesn't actually need its own standalone article as a separate concept from itself. Just to be clear, I fully support the recreation of a redirect from this title back to canoe afterward — but this, as written, should still be deleted first to minimize the possibility of future edit-warring over the "redirect vs. standalone article" issue.

Support or at any rate I don't oppose the deletion - as long as, as mentioned above, those readers looking for "Canadian canoe" quickly find themselves at Canoe. Carbon Caryatid ( talk) 22:51, 22 April 2018 (UTC) reply

• Delete and Redirect per nom - this is a disambiguation page that has had a makeover and gone to the ball. Nosebagbear ( talk) 13:53, 23 April 2018 (UTC) reply
