I DO think it would, as I mentioned in my post above the one you quoted. But there's no way you could organize something like that. Gay rights is still a very hot-button issue in many countries, Canada being one of the few to publicly be for it. You think the States would back out of the Olympics for gay rights? It would cause an uproar down there.
And there would probably be more backlash in Canada from backing out then there would be in Russia as a cause.
