A Golden Moment

Yesterday Canada experienced another golden moment. We have been rejoicing in our overall metal performance at the Olympics, including a number of golds! Even though our women took gold in hockey we've been smarting from the men's hockey team's dismal performance. But yesterday our curling team, led by Gushue, came through and we captured gold for the first time ever in men's curling. (Our women took gold in Japan, the first time curling was a metal event.)
I watched the highlights and could not believe the shots they were able to make.
So we are rejoicing across our nation, but not as much as the province of Newfoundland. The team is from Newfoundland, except for one player they borrowed from Ontario.
Newfoundland was so thrilled that their team was playing for gold that they closed their schools so the kids could watch it. They were not disappointed!
Today most of us Cancuks are rejoicing with them.

Congratulations to Canada on their (your) Olympic wins!
