Olympia!

Wow. Despite the supreme suckiness of the men's hockey team, I'm blown away by Canada's olympians at this year's winter games. We are so proud of you. Here's a recap of who won what.

These 24 medals put us in 3rd place and our highest showing ever. Our previous best was 17 medals in 2002 at Salt Lake City. Are we poised to win even more in Vancouver in 2010?

I now have a new favourite sport to watch--women's short track speed skating.

The women did remarkably well...especially Cindy Klassen, who won 5 medals!

Gold in the 1500m.
Silver in the 1000m.
Silver in the team pursuit.
Bronze in the 3000m.
Bronze in the 5000m.
