The Canadian government has more delegates in Greece than we have atheletes there. In the news the other day, they had featured a member of the female weightlifting (I think it was weightlifting - too lazy to do a search) team.
They receive so little funding that she had to wear her Quebec uniform while representing Canada. She actually sewed a Canadian flag on her uniform so it at least looked like she represented this country.
Our tax dollars have more to do with supporting uncountable levels of fat, lazy, corrupt government than helping our atheletes. Or anyone else who's not a politician, for that matter.
