11. You, I'm afraid are in outer space with regards to your criticism!
I, like the other posters, have seen nothing but happy, celebrating fans in the TV pictures. The athletes (from all countries, including Canada) have expressed their satisfaction with the living facilities et al. In fact I saw one American athlete say these are the nicest living quarters she has seen in an Olympic village.
Most importantly....I saw CBC TV interview a man called David Wallechinsky who has worked as a commentator for NBC Olympic coverage and is the author of many Olympic reference books and other reference books. He is the author of The Complete Book of the Summer Olympics and The Complete Book of the Winter Olympics series. He says there always are little stumbling blocks that have to be ironed out at Olympic games, but there is nothing serious at the Vancouver games! He was laughing and said there were much worse problems at the Atlanta games, for instance.
I would suggest you take a deep breath and maybe have a little drinkie poo. It might make you feel better!
