So all you naysayers and protesters - how do you like them apples?
The Olympic Games ended in Vancouver with a giant street party. Canada glowed golden and its citizens glowed red and white. The games were played, games were won and lost. No, it was not two weeks without incident, but what are we going to remember?
We will remember the Georgian luger, Nodar Kumaritashvili, who died tragically that first day.
We will remember the tears of Joannie Rochette and her glorious bronze medal win.
We will see Sidney Crosby score that final goal for gold.
Who cares if there wasn't quite enough snow? The games went on. Transit issues? Oh well, people still made their way downtown. That last arm of the caulrdon didn't lift? We're Canadian, we can make fun of our own mishaps.
Our city, our province, our country came together to celebrate an historic event. And, if I do say so myself, did a dang good job of it, too!
Stand up Canada, be proud! We've nothing to be ashamed of. If nothing else, we should hold our heads a little higher.
