Until now, Canada had never won a gold medal on their home turf. They had hosted the games two times before and they had no golden glory to speak of. Today however that streak ended as Alexandre Bilodeau of Canada (duh) ended the streak winning a gold medal earlier today. He won in Men's Moguls which is a freestyle skiing event. It was just yesterday that fellow Canadian Jennifer Heil missed gold in the women's moguls. The drought that Canada wanted to end is over. I'm sure he is the most popular Athlete in all of Canada now, Eh?
P.S. Okay second most. Can't forget the Great One.
