Erica Scarff (born 16 August 1996) is a Canadian paracanoeist who competes in international level events. She was a former national gymnast before she was diagnosed with osteosarcoma aged twelve after she broke her right leg when she ran into a vault in her gymnastics training session, her leg was amputated soon after the accident. Scarff was a very active person before her diagnosis: she tried swimming, cycling and alpine skiing but chose canoeing. Since her diagnosis, she was inspired by Terry Fox who also has the same cancer as she does.
