Notice that Gretzky didn't light up? He's lighting up the outside flame.

This is the Canada we all know and love. Screwing up when the whole world is watching.

Oh, they got one outside too. Well, lighting the flame indoors did seem counterproductive. and a safety hazard

If they open all the doors at once, the roof will deflate?
Screw the Olympics, I'd pay to see THAT!

Amen, brother. He will be transported, preferably by Mark Messier. Now how to get past the protesters?

Ah, more f***-uppery. This would NEVER happen in Quebec, other than random white elephant stadiums.

First domed flame...with technical difficulties. Don't you just love (English) Canada? Here in Montreal we just have a silly stadium. Oooh, fireworks. Man as embarrasing as all this tonight, it's peanuts to the total failure of the 1976 Montreal Olympics. Wasn't till the 2000s when they finally broke even.

The biodome and gardens nearby are lovely though. Gretsky won for leading a team, not for playing in one, the 2002 Salt Lake City team.

Read up on 76, that was a disaster. I am confident that the games will go well.

The CTV commentators bringing up the Nazi origins of the torch relay.
Not saying it isn't true, but y'know, thanks Captain Buzzkill.

You know, when I think of the Olympics, I don't think of the Great One riding in a police escort in heavy night rain.

Could you imagine if he made it to the torch after an hour...and Jean Beliveau or Guy LaFleur lit it instead? Wow, traffic.
