True. Only one city can be ranked most livable in the entire world

On a more serious note. Does anyone know if were going to be able to catch all the hockey today? There are a few games, other than Canada Vs Norway Id like to watch

It doesn't look like the women's games today are televised (Canada doesn't play), but all of the men's games are. TSN has the USA game this afternoon, and CTV has the Canada and Russia games tonight.

I prefer this site as it shows the gold medals as being of more importance not just the quantity won.

The Calgary Games had many events postponed as well; Nakiska had several windstorms and COP had dirt blowing everywhere, covering the bobsled/luge track. it happens

Yup.

Can't believe the 2008 world champion Buttle retired 2 years from the olympics in his home country. That shows dedication.

Yes and it's figure skating, guys tune out.

I think the equation is like this.

If Chan falls on his ass, he won't get a medal.
If Chan skates perfectly he'll get silver or bronze.
If Chan skates perfectly AND about 4 others guys fall on their asses too, he'll get Gold
