Very popular. We have large Eastern European populations across Canada. 

 

Polish & Ukrainian diasporas in Canada are pretty even tbh. Obviously Wayne Gretzky is the Holy Graal :p We can claim like 5% of this guy too ;)

Here we go, the 1000 heats of the men's 50m freestyle.

 

And who finished in last place in the first heat... yeah, Equatorial Guinea :d home of swimming legends.

 

I'm surprised the guy from Palau had a 27 second mark.

 

He gives me hope.

THe Canadian 4x200 finished in a whopping 17th place. Just a decade ago they were winning medals in this event. Sad.

 

It is truly shocking the disparity between the Canadian men and women right now.  I mean, I'm happy our women have been doing so well, and look to actually be improving.  But how can the men be left so far behind?  Maybe Thormeyer and Pratt can rise a bit in the coming years.
