I don't think anything will happen in Bejing beyond a few athletes wearing a 'Free Tibet' shirt, and then the Beijing officials cutting the TV feed or something like that. And charges of censorship by the press on a daily basis. But there will be more attacks in muslim parts of the country, and possibly marches or protests in Tibet.

For Canada, I think about 14 medals, but the ones I'll be excited about are the athletes who come out of nowhere, people the average Canadian has never heard of, who rises to the occasion and wins a medal.
