Career
In October 2015 it was announced that Canuel would join Boels–Dolmans for 2016 after two seasons with Specialized–lululemon, reuniting her with former teammates Evelyn Stevens and Chantal Blaak. In 2016, she was named in Canada's 2016 Olympic team. She was part of the squads that won the women's team time trial world championship for three consecutive years, in 2014, 2015 and 2016.
She represented Canada at the 2020 Summer Olympics. Canuel retired from competition after the 2021 UCI Road World Championships in Flanders, having extended her career by a season to compete in the COVID-19 pandemic-delayed Olympics.
