Alberta (the province which Calgary is located in) announced funding would be $700 million CAD, which is $300 million less than what was in the budget. This news will likely increase the number of people who vote no...

Canada had a gold there too, and she was a promising wrestler as she finished fifth in Rio. However, she decided to retire

The women have 10... Boxing has 6 too.

third in the women's 2000 steeplechase Not bad for 3rd in steeplechase 4th in men's high jump 5th in 400m men

Well the tradition of Belize teaming up with Slovakia needed to continue here...

That's what it is. 70m is used at the Olympics

I found the scores for the boys to be quite high. For ex. the Sri Lankan archers on was 630, and he got 667 in qualification?

Are the archery competition rules the same as at the Olympics?

Its a rule for each sport to have at least one stupid rule at the Youth Olympics

Football +18 +18

*Pretends to be shocked

He was fifth this year in the cadet worlds, so hopefully he can challenge for gold, but a medal would be nice, would be the first male Canadian wrestler to win a medal at the Youth Olympics.

needs to beat by at least 2 to advance to the next round.

It seems like every sport at the Youth Olympics has some sort of dumb rule(s). Btw, do you think our male athlete in 80 kg can top his group?

Yea I was surprised at some of the groups. Our only male athlete got Micronesia and Algeria, while the other group has Uzbekistan and Russia!

"The opening event is the Track’athlon, a brand new athletics assault course that features a sled run, shot put toss, standing long jump, water jump and a medicine ball run for men in lap 1 and the same minus the medicine ball run – but plus a parachute run – for women in lap 2"

IAAF is taking the medal for decisions that make no sense. Can't wait for the obstacle course next year at Minsk 2019!

He finished 8th in the qualification tournament (top 7 qualified).

guaranteed a medal (in taekwondo)!

IOC has a table here: https://www.olympicchannel.com/en/youth-olympic-games-2018/medals/ and they are keeping mixed medals separate.
