Norway, another socialistic state, at the moment has more gold medals
than the USA, which has nine, the same as much smaller, population-wise,
as Canada.

Must be the fault of global warming, eh?

They probably care more about these sports.

Yeah, that must be it. A country with a population of under six million
fielded a hockey team that beat the highly paid U.S. National Hockey
League team because the Americans don't care enough about hockey. Oh,
and the Fins only came in third.

And...if you'll check, you'll find that almost all of the Finnish players are professional hockey
players. Only two or three are players in their own country.

Of course, you knew that too, eh?
