Triple Gold!

Another four medal day for Canada, but this time we had three golds!

The day was capped by Canada's gold in Men's Curling bringing Kevin Martin and his rink the title that had eluded them in Salt Lake City.


Earlier in the day, and separated by only minutes, Canad won gold in Speed Skating in Men's Team Pursuit and Jasey Jay Anderson road his snowboard to gold in the Men's Parallel Giant Slalom.

Lyndon Rush's team also took bronze in the Four Man BobSleigh but deserved better, finishing 2nd in each each of his four runs, but ending up third by 0.01 seconds after a great final run by the Germans.

With 25 medals already, Canada has surpassed the 24 we won in Torino, and with 13 gold medals we have tied Norway and the Soviet Union for the most in one Winter Games, and set a record for most gold by a host nation

And apparently there is some hockey game tomorrow where we might be able to pick up another...
