So a nation winning one gold is to be ranked ahead of a team with 10 silvers and 10 bronze?
Don't be silly, and I for one wasn't suggesting that. There is obviously a difference in worth between a gold, silver and bronze medal, and I mean worth in terms of accomplishment. To rank countries accomplishments simply by total medals is a lousy system.

That's the problem there is no perfect system, whether number of golds or total medals.

What happens with 4G, 2S, 1B vs. 1G, 8S, 6B.

My previous example is clear, this one's a bit tougher.

Personally, I would rank the 2nd team in this example, higher. I think a sliding scale, I suggested 3:2:1, is closest to being fair. That's why they stand on different levels on the podium.

Doesn't sound unreasonable.

However, leaving it ambiguous allows more nations to claim success in their efforts and pump up national pride. Not a trivial matter when you think about it.

That's true, and it is important, especially for smaller nations without the resources. They have every reason to take pride. But I think most people of most nations take the most pride in a particular athlete or a team in a particular sport. When comparing contries overall, I think it would be good if they could standerdize that somewhat. Not a big point.

Well thats exactly the point. we don't know about the athletes that never make it to this stage, because they're not invested in. Just white. that's all. When I was in school, it wasn't the white people that were the best at sports. It was the black, brown and chinese kids. Where are they in the Canadian olympic ads? Instead lets get bumfuck from smallville and invest in them because that's the face of Canada. That's what other bumfucks from other smallvilles like to see and buy into. Ultimately, that's Canada. A bunch of talentless individuals trying to compete at a world stage. That is why we fail. Imagine if the same selection occurred in the NBA or Baseball. Where would our teams be then? When it comes to real money, nobody makes their team with Canadian athletes, because as I said they don't pick and invest in the best, just bumfuckson from bumfuckville.

No offense to our Canadian gold winner though. I'm glad she won. I just think we could win a lot more if we actually invested in real talented individuals rather than always trying to put up only one face.
Which sport in Canada has selection criteria for its Olympic squad that is based on either the race or hometown of the member?

Or should be rebuild our Olympic program (which is doing quite well actually) based on your HS experience?

Actually, I take it back, based on your post...you never got near HS.

What I am saying is that it is completely ridiculous to rank teams simply by total medal count. If I have two 100 dollar bills in my pocket, and you have two 50's, would you say it is the same just because we both have two bills?
There is an old story of a pirate who got a big gem. They made fun of him because he only had one so he smashed it into many pieces. Then again pirates, much like blackrock tend to have a rep for being on the dumb side.

Actually we're 11th and not a single 3rd world country is ahead of us unless you're idiot enough to call China a 3rd world country.

You continue to resurface and show the kind of troglodyte you really are.
So how's Canada doing so far? 35th in the world? Yup sounds about right. Talentless people who then compete at the world stage and suck.

Let's see which countries are beating us:

Kazakstan
Cuba
Belarus
Ethiopia (didn't they have a mass starvation crisis that was brought to the world stage with "Live Aid"?)
Kenya
Azerbaijan (didn't even know that was a country)
Croatia (didn't they have some kind of civil war in the 90's - oh yeah....)

So let's keep doing what Canada does best and get bumfuck from smallville - talentless white people to represent us. Just like in the arts, just like in every other area in this country. Then wonder why Kazakstan and Azerbaijan (??) beat us in the Olympics.

Good Job!

Well that's exactly my point. You can't even write one proper sentence and say that you're very wealthy. Not quite. Money obviously doesn't buy class or intelligence. You want an award for that?

P.S. If you are as wealthy as you say you are (which I don't really think is the case - someone this successful would not write the way you do), you wouldn't be here. There are many other places better than Toronto to set up shop.

In my heart and mind Canada will always be number ONE in the things that matter.
Rockslinger, I respect your points of view even if we disagree on things, which is usually why I don't respond to your posts because I do generally agree with your opinions and points of view because they are intelligent.

I don't agree that Canada is the best. Not because it doesn't have the potential to be (it does). It stinks because the overwhelming majority are talentless, and they only need to compete in the world stage to see this. When Kazakhstan beats us with our amazing health care system, funding, and quality of life, that's a serious joke.

I think that this country has talent, but doesn't invest in it because it's priority is in reliving this delusion that white people in this country are the only voice that matters and are the best. Clearly not. Imagine if we applied the same logic to our engineers and math wizzes and said, yeah you're good but you're Indian and thus don't represent the face of Canada (that jackasses in small towns don't want to see) so we won't train you. Meanwhile they'll train some asshole from Peterborough to learn how to canoe. Or some jackass from Belleville to learn how to curl. Then I pay tax dollars to support this type of systemic bullshit. I'm tired of it.

I think there is huge talent in the non white population in Canada, HUGE. but until they start getting recognized and trained and until Canadians start taking pride in them, we will never be a stellar country. One only needs to look at Russell Peters to understand that his success only came when he left for the States, where he blew up because they recognized his talent immediately. Do you have any idea how many super smart Indian and Asian Canadians born and raised in this country are overlooked year after year at every level because of the prejudices of Canada, and replaced by talentless white fools? Do you have any idea of the number of them that are going to the States where they are welcomed and doing amazing things? I know tons.
