I can truly say this has been one of the best days of my life. The celebration at Four Kings was INSANE. Huge group of us there, screaming our heads off, belting out O Canada at the top of our lungs. Quite possibly the greatest moment in Canadian sporting history, certainly up there with the 72 Summit Series. Sidney Crosby's goal is to this generation what Paul Henderson's goal was in 1972.
You have to be the most cosmopolitan person ever! Or you just have real identity issues.


Bit of both, it's a long story of a personal nature. Might tell you over a beer sometime or something but it's not exactly something I'd post on here.

Well done Canada. Crosby had a quiet game but a bit of class for the winning goal. Quiet tournament from him.
It's Canada's 14th gold of the Vancouver Games, breaking the record for most gold medals at a Winter Olympics.

Dad is Kiwi of Italian descent.
Mom is Aussie of Irish descent.
(Other ethnicities are involved as well)
 
Grew up in Australia, moved to NZ in time for high school.
 
Canadian bit is a long story, but perhaps the most important. I'm not Canadian myself (despite many Canadians claiming otherwise haha) but have strong links to the country and I always cheer for them in sport whenever I can.
