Owning a general sense of accomplishment regardless of result
Gary Lunn brings us full circle and back to our time-honoured approach to Canadian athletics.
Lunn says Canada’s medal total does not fully reflect the progress made by Canadian athletes. "Just in these Olympics, I think in top ten finishes, 51 top ten finishes as of today. So, you know, instead of saying, ’You didn’t win this medal’ or ’You didn’t win that medal,’ focus on our successes and also salute the Americans."
