About three weeks from the Winter Olympics... time for a preliminary #HosersGuide to Canada's prospects at the Games.
In 2022 Canada won 26 medals, and in 2026 I'm projecting they do about the same, and finish 4 or 5th in the overall medal count. Probably will improve on their 4 golds in 2022

I say we work out of trade with Japan. We send them Gilles and Poirier for Sato and Nakai
G/P can do the Ray Bourque thing just before retirement, Japan gets the dance team they desperately need to get the team gold... and sets us up for at least a team bronze and a helluva future in singles!

This is chess. On skis. With rifles.
Elvira is playing it very well, skiing well within herself and being patient on the range.
Minkinnen is being tactical and Julia is now fed up and ready to attack - no risk, no reward…

On 19 December 1937: J.R.R. #Tolkien writes in a letter to C.A. Furth of Allen and Unwin: "I have written the first chapter of a new story about Hobbits – 'A long expected party'. A merry Christmas." This was the start of The Lord of the Rings. Merry Christmas indeed! #BookSky
