Yeah, this is my stance. It's a symbolic gesture that really has zero impact other than taking the opportunity away from athletes who have been training for this, and (selfishly) taking away the opportunity for Canadians to root for our athletes in the Olympics.
I totally understand the reasoning for it, but most of the negatives from it fall on Canadians.
