The result: Over the past five Olympics, from the 2000 Summer Games in Sydney through the 2008 Summer Games in Beijing, Johnson's model demonstrated 94% accuracy between predicted and actual national medal counts. For gold medal wins, the correlation is 87%.

If events play out as his economic model predicts, it would be the first time for Canada to be atop the final medals scoreboard at an Olympic venue. Johnson's forecast calls for Canadian athletes to collect 27 medals altogether, five of them gold.
