What a bunch of jerks! They should be forced to hang out with the Russian president. How childish he is being!
One of the NYC news anchors was wearing red, maple leaf mittens that someone had sent him from Canada. I think that's so cool! I would wear a Canadian scarf. It is very exciting that you guys are winning, especially with the Olympics in your own country! We Americans love to tease Canadians, but we do share the same continent, and we really do love Canada! GO CANADA!!!

Judy, I have some of those mittens too
 They were made by HBC (Hudson Bay Company... oldest company in Canada) for these Olympics. Scott's mom works at an HBC store so she got them for me as soon as they came in. They're sold out everywhere! I'd be glad to send you a Canadian scarf! I'll keep an eye out for one The men's final hockey game is starting in just a few minutes. We're just getting all settled in on the couch!

WOW! What a game! USA tied it up with only 24 seconds left in the game, and then Canada scored in overtime. This is our 14th gold medal... the most gold EVER won by a single country in Olympic history! For never winning a single gold at home before, this was definitely our year. I am stunned! What a great ending to the games!

LOL! Thanks Betsi
It was like revenge from the USA gold in world junior hockey! But really it could have gone either way, USA played a great game! I was so worried in overtime because we hadn't scored since the first period.

Hi Lindsay! It's good to hear your account of watching the game! It was a great one, for sure!
I liked the closing ceremony too! I have really enjoyed seeing and learning so much more about Canada during these games!!!
