The Quebecois are descendants of the French that lost to the British, mind you, the French lost pretty much every war they've been involved in. I sometimes think it must be difficult to be a recruiter for the military in France...you can hardly use your past success as a sales point.
China have Been Faking Parts of the Olympics!
China faked the fireworks also this..

gawd the lack of medals from canada is embarrassing, as are the faltering canadian results with poor performances. as if athens results wasn't bad enough already. in a way, i'm starting to feel a hint of gladness for toronto not winning the hosting rights to 08 games.. less world attention on our medal results.
plus, we would have never been able to put up such a spectacular opening ceremony (fake stuff aside).
I didn't get that whole scandal. Are younger gymnasts better than older ones?
I don't really understand that either. After watching NBC's coverage of the Olympics last night they kept talking about the Chinese being under age.
Who cares if they are under age. If they have reached that level of greatness at any age, why shouldn't they be able to compete? If a 14 year old is better at gymnastics than some 20 year old with over 15 years of training, maybe you should train harder.
It's been really nice to see the Chinese gymnasts pull through and get things done. Isn't there some 14 year old American diver in the olympics?
