Cat was unimpressed by the Opening Ceremony. Me too.

"'A dangerous trend': Olympic skiers voice concern over receding glaciers"

Olympic skiers say receding glaciers are 'hard to ignore'
Olympic host country Italy has lost more than 200 square kilometres of glacier area since the late 1950s.

Oh look! Another Albertan traitor!
Please stay in Milan Ms. McRae!

The closing ceremony of the Winter #Olympics was good, but could have been a lot more, a mini review:

A ★★★½ review of Milano Cortina 2026 Olympic Closing Ceremony: Beauty in Action (2026)
Sadly it's becoming the norm to put all the eggs in the Opening ceremony basket, so I wasn't expecting much. While I like it and it was certainly better than the last two closing ceremonies of winter games, I feel it has a lots of wasted potential. The opera fantasy segment was great but I think it fell a bit short, the Roman arena was superb but didn't build much on it, the musical show was fun but not much besides that. Still, I like it, and I think it was a great Olympic Winter Games. See yo…

This gloopy fake-bullettime generated tweening slop is nauseating. Make it stop.

Olympic venues hope to leave a sustainable legacy
The 2026 Games have utilised upgraded venues and multi-use developments designed for long-term community use.

Remember the 2002 Winter #Olympics in Salt Lake City (USA)?

'It’s pretty warm out': Climate change heats Winter Olympics
This type of February 'warmth' for Cortina is made at least three times more likely due to climate change, according to meteorologists.

Good Morning #Canada
Breakfast is done, coffee is brewing, and a slice of banana bread is awaiting it's demise. So I have no time for crafting my usually informative yet idiotic posts. It's almost time for #TeamCanada to once again take on our rivals across our southern border. You will have to make do with this compilation of #OlympicHockey records for Canada's men's and women's teams.
Let's go Canada....

The Olympics are ditching PFAS waxes — and the ‘ridiculous’ speed they gave skiers
A key source of speed is gone, as concerns over toxic “forever chemicals” reshape Olympic skiing and the science behind winning on snow.

Good Morning #Canada
Back in January my daughter and I set a date to watch the #TorontoSceptres in mid March. It's a good thing we bought tickets early because interest in the Professional Women's Hockey League is surging after the #Olympics. Most of the remaining games in Canada are now sold out, merchandise sales were up over 100% in February, and the league has 5 times the web traffic versus 2025. League management is being cautious but expansion to Europe is now being discussed.
Growing up my daughters were competitive softball players and a lot of their friends played hockey or soccer. At an early age they thought it was bullshit that there were no career options for exceptional women players. Fast forward 20 years and we can now sit in the stands and enjoy professional women's basketball, soccer and hockey. It's not equal to men's sport in pay or prestige yet, but we'll enjoy the progress and cheer for more.
