I'll cheer for those wearing the Maple Leaf as always and would respect any athlete if they did decide to boycott it. However, it's the Olympics. It's about different cultures coming together, showing their own pride and respecting each other. Boycotting it almost seems counterintuitive, instead I would prefer our athletes to go over there and represent Canada. Let Russia know that we aren't suffering for our ever growing tolerance of the LGBT community.

I completely understand what you are getting at and I think your heart is in the right place, but this is a poor choice of word. Perhaps acceptance would be more appropriate?
