That's the problem. We have 90% of the curlers who still have full jobs and restricted by provincial championships. The other countries invest in 1 or 2 great teams, full time curlers, no restrictions.
It would be like if in hockey Canada had a provincial championship and the winner went to the Olympics to face all of Sweden. McDavid and Crosby wouldn't be on the same team.
