Let's be honest here. You can't even get Canadians to unite to fight a fricking pandemic virus that directly affects us. You think honestly that people are going to give up their accustomed way of life for something happening halfway across the globe that has nothing to do with them? There will be the normal sabre rattling that will amount to nothing. We can all call for not letting Canadian athletes go to make a statement, but it's easy for us regular Joe's to say that on a message board because it won't affect us and we give up nothing, while we expect the athletes who sacrificed years of training and time to just give it up for us.
