As a USian living near the Canadian border, I’ve been watching on CBC and mostly cheering for Canadians, but this and the men’s hockey players staying at hotels instead of the Olympic village shifted my fluid allegiance for those sports
Comment on But the Canadien stock market is over 33,000!

Seeing the interview with the two Canadians after the match put me off of them so hard. I don’t want those guys representing me. The way they accused Sweden of only complaining because they were losing was gross. Like even if Canada wasn’t cheating clearly it was reasonable for Sweden to ask for scrutiny. It’s like classic victim blaming, so toxic.

I’m Canadian and was quite displeased by the arrogance of those Canadians. Especially that one guy. You don’t start off a discussion by throwing “Fuck you’s” around. I expected more class and statesmanship in a situation like that. “But they were under a lot of pressure” is what you say when a child tantrums up, not an adult.
