I was going to mention that Calgary had many events rescheduled as well.

I don't understand all the hate for the Van games right now. We had our turn, let them have their moment in the spotlight. If you absolutely need to make it a contest for bragging rights just remind yourself we had the first winter games, and the success our athletes are having now is largely due because of the legacy our games left.

As for the Van games, sure there's a few problems but what really matters is that it seems like the athletes and the visitors are having a great time there. They are putting on a ghood show and man international visitors are once again mentioning how friendly and polite Canadians are. Even a few idiot protesters couldn't change that.
