@popman648 Gold is what matters most, who cares about silver or bronze?

[ralphyization]

@btr0677 You Americans might have more medals of whatever colour, BUT, we have more of the GOLD kind, Not trying to brag here, well, maybe just a little. But, we DID win more GOLD medals than any other country on THE planet! 14!! Hockey was THE main one. Both Womens and Mens!!

@robertjohnson487 For one thing the track was designed by a German and built and approved by the IOC. That track just happened to be built in Canada. The same governing body that built the luge/bobsled track for the last 4 winter Olympics. Get your facts straight friend.

It's utterly amazing to me how ignorant Americans can be sometime. You make statements based on half truths and sometimes no facts whatsoever.

@REdCr0ss98 Looks like you spoke a little too soon considering Canada ended the games with the 3rd highest medal count and more gold medals then any other country in Olympic history. Have fun with your numerous bronze medals and being 3rd best in more events. I'll take being 1st in more events then have more bronze medals any day.

@REdCr0ss98 Yes the Americans donate the most in foreign aid overall, however on a per capita basis, the USA actually falls behind almost every industrialized country in the world. Sorry to be the barer of bad news but that my friend is a fact. All you have to do is Google "The worlds most generous misers" to see that this is true. Your amount given for foreign aid would be like a millionaire giving someone a homeless person $5.

@AuzzieMask At least Canada is the type of country that could host 3 Olympic games unlike Australia with only one. Not to mention one of the only gold medal hopefuls you have is actually Canadian born and raised and learned how to ski on these mountains in Vancouver's back yard.

Yeah about time for sure. We'll be happy with the record 24 gold medals, most won by any nation at any Olympics ever!

@REdCr0ss98 No one waits years for crucial life-saving surgery in Canada. Another myth by those who are jealous.
