The Canadian Warmblood is a Canadian breed or registry of warmblood sport horses with European warmblood ancestry. Admission to its stud-book depends on both parentage and performance. A horse must have at least one of twenty-five influential European warmblood stallions in its pedigree; those stallions were foaled between 1840 and 1926. The horse must also pass a Keuring or performance inspection. The listed measurements are a height of 1.65 and a weight of 600, with no units specified. These requirements distinguish the registry's stated approach to entry. Its origin is Canada, and its type is listed as a sport horse.
