Feels like a C- Olympics. We won many of the medals we were supposed to, just not always the placement we wanted. Dandjinou was a pretty big disappointment, but short track is such a crapshoot. Winning men's curling was probably my favourite moment of the games, but feels like we're a few gold's short of what we expected.
Some events (Nordic and sledding) Canada is just a non-factor. I don't know if it's from a lack of funding, but we have a ton of ground to make up there. We're great on the ice and in X-games events. We need to gain ground on those classical events. It seems like many athletes from other countries train in Canada, so why aren't we as competitive with our resources?
