Canada was first represented in international competition for the visually impaired by brothers Pier Morten and Eddie Morten at the European Open Blind Judo Championships in 1987, and both brothers won bronze in their weight categories the following year at the 1988 Paralympics in Seoul. Pier, who is the first deafblind person in the world to earn a black belt in judo, also won bronze at the Paralympics in 1992 and 2000, making him Canada's most competitively successful disabled judoka (see 'List of Canadian judoka' for the names of everyone who has represented Canada at the Paralympics, and 'Competition' for medal results).
