Canada finished with 18 medals! not too shabby. The goal was to be in the top 16 countries, and i think we actually finished 19th, but 18 medals is the highest since Atlanta. Yay Canada!

We won the bronze medal in basketball after all. Argentina was great, and with our "star player" injured.
You were right Gaby :o)

So happy for the men's indoor volleyball team and their gold medal, especially after what their team has been through. If nobody heard, a man stabbed the coaches in laws, killing the father.
