If you're basing your disappointment and disgust on this basis, I'll go out on a limb and say more countries than not will experience this in every Olympics contested. This isn't a uniquely Canadian phenomenon.

And I'm going out on a limb and predicting Mike Brown will end the medal drought tonight. Qualified in second place for the finals and someone who has generally exceeded expectations when the lights are the brightest, not vice versa.
