The Olympic and Paralympic committees also urged the IOC and International Paralympic Committee to postpone their respective Games by one year. Let’s see who else follows.

gumzy3000 7,898 Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Proud to be a Canadian. I am so happy we are one the first countries to do this and I hope other countries do too. I mean, medals and national pride is amazing but it isn't nice to force the athletes to go. Sure, we do not actually force them to compete but them deciding to go in the first place will be a difficult decision. So yah, I am pretty glad we are doing this. Now the athletes won't be stressed but I do feel bad for them because they trained so hard for these games. I hope that the Olympics gets post phoned. If it happens in Summer, this will be a lose lose situation for everyone involved. trolly troll troll Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont if its because of the prime minister but i get that vibe from Canada too. I think a lot of contries will follow, hopefully. That would be the biggest petri dish in the world even if by then the situation becomes stable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaLa 19,898 Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 I love the Olympics and am sad it’s come to this, but proud of my country for taking a stand. Hope the IOC wakes up and postpones them, maybe to next year? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas P 18,479 Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Well then there’s no reason for me to watch im not about to root for any other country than my own On a real note though, proud my country was the first to do this. It shows compassion for the athletes and a really good understanding of the severity of this pandemic. I’m a simple guy to please, if you like Melodrama, we chill.
