Canadian Olympians to wear seal skin? Boom goes a hobo

More likely to take them all out to a celebration dinner. This is a beautiful thing. Canada is such an enlightened country.

 

This guy thinks everyone should just chill out (and he can get you whatever you need to do so).

 

Oh Boom, so glad you didn't disappoint.

 

And in an update, the COC says no.

Besides that, the Olympic gear is already in production. A redesign is out of the question.

 

So in other words, it was a non-starter from the beginning. Yet it got unanimous support from our politicians.

God I hate politics.

 

Look -- if jj was going to honor me in thread title it would have been rude not to comment.

 

Valid point. But, I think, in this thread, you should spell it 'honour.'

 

Our leaders are very good at grandstanding, Gomer.

 

Who cares if it amounts to anything, as long as you look like you care . . .

 

Prexactly.

 

This was always a non-starter.

There's no way the COC would ever have agreed to this.

And no matter what you think of the seal hunt, it would have been entirely inappropriate.

 

Why?

Super Dave Osborne always showed his patriotism by employing safety equipment fashioned from genuine Saskatchewan seal-skin bindings.
