He explained one post above, a video "updated" with no commercials.

Well, our friend Guardian once had the complete (commercial-free) CBC coverage of the 1996 opening ceremony on Youtube and thought about re-uploading it a couple of months ago. Sadly, he seems to have dismissed that again.

Time for a rare jewel. Excerpt from the closing ceremony of the 1983 Pan Am Games in Caracas, Venezuela.

Been over a month since Balanced Australia's last Moscow 1980 Opening Ceremony video from Channel 7's broadcast. He must have got caught up in other things or still tweaking it making sure it is of great quality before putting up the next installment; he could make things up by giving us two or three next time. As we wait, I just found a new Moscow 1980 video from the son of Harvey Nicholson, Mike. Harvey filmed this on Kodak Super 8 and narrates the Opening Ceremony and scenes from Moscow with lots of the Australian men 8+, women's 4+ and men's pair rowing competition footage in Moscow. Mike later edited this to a 2-hour movie and a 15-minute one here.
