US athletes are pretty lucky. They've had programs like own the podium for quite a while. Canadian atheletes not so much. I hope this is a legacy program, cause they had almost nothing before, and this is better than nothing.

Its a program for canadian athletes with a aim of topping the medal count. Pretty much an investment of money to make the athletes strong medal contenders. Its been working in some ways with numerous top 5 finishes, but lacking on the medal front.
 
Why can't I have MSNBC? Why the efff isn't US/Canada on the network channel????!?! I just wish I was in Canada right now I guess.

Seems pretty retarded NBC would put USA/Canada on MSNBC. That should be one of the biggest draws so far of these olympics. Prime time, Sunday evening. Nothing else on TV. USA/Canada for momentum in one of the best sports in Winter Olympics. But lets just put it on a second tier channel. Lol, gotta love NBC.

Not only that but at least for those of us with Directv, it's not even in freaking HD. Such a stupid move.
