pff who cares about the past, you know the budget for the athletes in the USA compared to CANADA, and the number of people in the USA compared to CANADA, you just cant compare

This is very true,
Canada has 1/10 the population and a quarter of the amount of money the americans have

Canada is fuckin golden.
i'm so proud to be canadian.

Most medals of all time? Whats that mean, congrats you got 13 bronze medals, half your medals were not the first place guy, not the second place guy, but the lousy third placed guy who doesn't even get noticed.

USA - 9 - 15 - 13
CANDA 14 - 7 - 5


Thats what matters ^

We get first not third.

I think the mcdonalds commercial said it best " You can find gold all over the world, but most of it is here"

actually....the USA has won more medals than any other country in history overall in the olympics....and the majority of them were gold. Even the soviet union came nowhere near matching the US numbers.

According to the all time medal count, usa has:

1016 gold
824 silver
708 bronze

Canada has

110 gold
139 bronze
156 bronze

Interestingly enough, canada has won more summer olympics medals than winter....

So it would seem that not only does the USA win more gold, but they also win more silver and bronze, and they win all of them more often.

Just putting that info out there....I could care less. France wasn't involved in that hockey game so....didn't matter to me

canada doesn't care about medals in anything else as much as they do hockey..
you can have all the medals you want in your spandex clad events.

hockey's our sport, if we only won a hockey gold canada would be happy.

kudos to a great game though, usa hockey has come along nicely.. looking forward to more great games in the future.
